I'm not sure I understand what you mean by 'carte blanche political slate', etc. Could you rephrase it?

I mean secularism... separation of social decision from religion... in all cases/scenarios

Got it, thanks. I don't see a conflict. People should be allowed to practice their religions (same caveat as above) and religious influence can still be kept out of governmental decisions.
