Secularism was the word adopted by George Jacob Holyoake in the early 1850s to describe a system of morals and social action shaped exclusively by this-worldly considerations, irrespective of religious beliefs. The word was derived from the secular education movement for the complete separation of religious teaching from other forms of education.

With the exception of recognition of a Deity and a life after death, isn’t Secularism attempting the same goal by attempting to shape our views as well as morals to fit into their frame of what America should be? Mostly thru the media.
Am I wrong to also believe that most great societies were founded on a set of uniform principles (rooted in a faith) that citizens of that society could identify with as a majority? And with a break down of these uniform priciples dosn't history show the sociaty soon followed?
And despite being founded on Christian values should American turn its back on these fundamental values and embrace the religion of Secularism as what it now means to be an American in the moral sense?
We only have to turn on the TV or Radio to know the answers and for that I truly fear for my children’s future and to also what it means to be an “American”.
