why is a secular republic`s set of moral values superior.

BREAKING NEWS!!!! nazi germany has seized to exist 68 years ago!
But as you can see we are discussing if evil even exist so how can you judge that a secular republic is any better just because you don't agree with their beliefs? If you are a theist well you either didn't stick to your beleifs or you would rejoice in the stoning. Or your an atheist or agnostic and realize that it really doesn't matter because it's not really right or wrong it's just customs(just life bro). Yes please explain in detail why secular republic morality is any better? you grew up in a secular republic keep that in mind. It's the judgement that your society is superior that make's it so flawed because now, it's no better.
So they didn't claim superiority???(was not asking how long their reign was). What about North Korea or USA like was brought up. What is the USA even superior in the world for? Number of Adults that believe in god, Number of people living in prison, Number of obese people.
Live every day as if already dead, that way you're not disappointed when you are.
