Well, you could look at "secularism" as the state "religion". The problem starts with the identification of "religion" as existent. It IS possible to be involved AND neutral. People overthink this stuff, making laws to guarantee religious people are not abused, because they see "a possible problem" looming. NO! You wait 'til shit happens! Then deal with it. People have the right to be wrong! The only way to make sure people don't do bad things is to take away their ability to CHOOSE to do anything. But if you don't think thoroughly enough to understand this, you may imagine there's some kind of satisfactory "middle ground" between freedom and tyranny; that you can "safely" restrict certain rights, for the good of all, without destroying that ineffable sense of liberty that is the really happy part of "freedom". It's the loss of this ineffable sense of liberty that will signal to each of us that the "middle ground" fantasy has failed.
