Secularism in its pure form is way forward for any progressive society n it has no bearing of harbouring the moral values of a society.....
As a nation I will always prefer secular without any deformation over any other religious models......
Kindly do give me an example of a secular country in its true form...
Every secular country has kept Christmas as a holiday and Easter too...That has both pagan and Christian backing....
Every secular country is discriminating some of their people based either or race or colour - No humane upgrade there...
Every secular country is finding fault in immigrants but not in their own policies of attacking the countries from which the immigrants come - no moral upgrade there....
Every secular country still has their churches ringing their bells but god forbid azaan is heard, and also freedom to bash some religions is solely allowed while anything against another is discouraged and frowned upon! - dont see religious freedom upgraded in that...
Every secular country has angry people with bolted anger coz they either are discriminated, their religion/ colour is suppressed and it all comes out when a riot happens - I dont see that different from Pakistan
So explain to me again how is it preferred?
This maybe partly true. However, the secularist revolution in the west has a long history of political struggle between the Church State and the State. The result of this was the confinement of religion and religious principles at the individual level. This then is very consistent with what secularists in Pakistan wish for: confining religion at the individual level with the intent to remove the role of 'islamic principles' in the functioning of the state.
And we all see the results of such a move:
More end up in old people home
More end up on the street with drugs
More freedom for gays and lesbians as compared to immigrants who want nothing to do with the shit happening in the name of their religion or race!
More people are ok with drinking, smoking, getting obese and of course the casual sex
Adultery and fornication is no longer a crime
These are just a few degradation of moral ethics which some form of restrictions helps avoid!
