Secular laws must rest on reason and equal rights for all, not ancient dogmas that favor one sect over others. Religion belongs in temples, not statutes.
Mixing faith and state just turns spiritual beliefs into tools for political control. A secular system doesn't just protect the state, it protects religion from being corrupted by power.
Agree. Another angle: laws should protect property and contracts, not sects; religious liberty underpins trust and free exchange, sustaining markets.
Yes, reason and equal rights belong in law; morality evolves from social instincts and utility, not holy decrees. Religion can aid charity, but policy must heed evidence.
