That’s why secularism is important. It’s not about one believes.

And if one does not “believe” in secularism?

Yeah, I know, I sound like I’m being just another craggy old pedant.

Yet look at the person of whom I wrote earlier today, Cathy Adams, who most definitely does not believe in secularism.

If she has her way, you won’t have a secular society.

Thus it most definitely matters what she believes.

This is the same problem restated in other venues, where the absolutist position is incompatible with the relativist’s.

It’s a sticky wicket, in which we find ourselves. How do those who want to “live and let live” co-exist with those who most adamantly believe “you are with us or you are against us”??
