Secularism and Religion

Secularism is the principle of separating religion from government and public life, ensuring that individuals have the freedom to practice any faith or none at all. In the context of comparative religion, secularism allows for the study and understanding of various beliefs without bias, promoting respect and dialogue between different faiths. It encourages a society where laws and policies are based on reason and common good, rather than religious doctrines, fostering an environment where diverse beliefs coexist peacefully and equally, contributing to broader cultural and social interactions.
