Re: Secularism and Atheism
one’s faith or lack of faith shouldn’t offend anyone else’s as long as you don’t impose your ways on him or her. i don’t see why you would be offended if someone who isn’t from your faith expresses disbelief in your ways. surely you believe christians are mislead, hindus believe in gods that are fake etc. should they be chronically offended or just accept this? your faith is no more important than anyone else’s to be offended or to offend others with.
secularism is against religion being the primary influence in public life. it tolerates those that are heartless slaves to logic as much as it tolerates mindless slaves to scripture. neither gets superior treatment if they break a traffic law or steal from their neighbour.
