You made the proclamation the the top 10 countries on that list were secular proving your point. I point out that the first two countries on that list are not secular, yet you fail to address that point (can't imagine why) yet want to focus on "atheist" versus "secular".
If the religious can have a secular government, then atheists can have a secular government also...

You are probably the thickest person I've encountered online, maybe ever. This is really, really simple stuff, almost childlike, and you still don't get it.
The top 10 states on that list are de facto secular. That you keep insisting they're not is just ridiculous.
How are you still alive? I mean, being so fucking thick? Do you have to revise every night how to go to sleep before you can do it?
Protip; if someone offers you a penny for your thoughts, sell.
No, Denmark by definition is not secular, I don't care how you try to spin it.

Quote: • According to the constitution (§ 54), the Lutheran-evangelic Church is the Danish People’s Church (“Folkekirke”), and is, as such, supported by the State, which means that the Lutheran-evangelic religion and its institutions and churches are given a favored place among religions in Danish society. All tax-paying citizens, regardless of their personal religious beliefs, thus contribute to the priests and bishops of the “Folkekirke.”The church and state are clearly not separate, and in case you can't understand that, here is a list of secular/non secular countries, Denmark is clearly listed as non secular.
• Practically all citizens are automatically born as members of the “Folkekirke.” Not to be so demands that the citizens take the initiative to leave the church. At present 83 percent of the Danish population belong to the “Folkekirke.”
