secular governance

Secular governance refers to a system where government functions independently of religious institutions or influences. It ensures that laws, policies, and public decisions are made based on reason, human rights, and civic considerations, rather than religious doctrines. This approach promotes religious neutrality, allowing individuals of all faiths or no faith to coexist peacefully and equally under the law. Secular governance helps protect freedom of religion and prevents any particular religion from dominating political power, fostering an inclusive, fair society where decisions are made in the best interest of all citizens regardless of their beliefs.
