Happy (and proud) to be a Secularist

Yes indeed. Perhaps the Wiki article should specify "so-called" secular states. I've picked up from the news that Turkey has made a turn away from the secularism it had achieved (change of leadership, I suppose), which is sad.

The Wiki article on secular states is interesting. So many that purport to be secular are not and and are quite repressive in their actions. Turkey is just one example. It takes a long time for the institutions of government and the state to allow real freedom of religious practice to those who wish it and to desist from imposing religious practice on those who do not wish it.
