Secularism

As long as we hold that only one religion is true, that it must convert the world, and that other religions must be false we are not good citizens with respect for all, much less secular people. We are promoting an agenda of intolerance and violence that must cause conflict and suffering, even if we are doing so in the name of God.

European Intellectual Secularism

Indian society faces a choice between maintaining a pluralistic approach, with mutual respect for different religions, or following the European intellectual secularism, where the state protects religious exclusivism.
