Secular humanism is the main branch of
humanism. On its surface, secularism tends to reject
supernaturalism, thus conflicting with most
religions. Secularism is not opposed to religion, but to
religious law, whereby religion proposes to impose its doctrines upon all of its citizenry, dismissing full
freedom of religion.
Secular simply means keeping separate the common government from individualistic religion so that any rules developed under secularism can be applied universally.
