Hey GC, some history for you. Secularism as normatively defined in the west was invented by your Protestant religious predecessors in the 17th century.

Freedom of and from religion is its central aim in the public sphere. It is by definition not anti-religious unless you're a person who wants to invent an imagined position against something he doesn't understand and doesn't care to. It seeks to ensure that the state is neutral towards religious beliefs, not against them.

Look up pillars of Westphalia, look up cuius regio eius religio, look up the 30 years war, then do some fucking research for once in your life and chart the evolution of secular structures implemented in western states (including the US).

Or continue to talk nonsense and be a laughing stock. Nobody is bothered either way.
