That Other Church: Secularism is a religion. Let's treat it as such

David Klinghoffer writes for Christianity Today on the religion of secularism.

While the vast majority of secularists would vehemently object to their worldview being called a religion, a valid definition of religion in Webster's dictionary is "a cause, principle, or system of beliefs held to with ardor and faith." Secularists try to get around this by dogmatically asserting that Darwinism is a proven fact, which it is not.

The problem we have with many secularists is "their aggressive means in advancing their political agenda and spreading their faith."

Public education is the place where secularists have "ensured that its creation account alone should be taught."

Klinghoffer goes on to say that "the prejudice on behalf of the secular faith emanating from the media is likewise hard to ignore. HBO's Bill Maher, speaks of himself as "spreading the anti-gospel."
