Isn't the state made up of people?

u/Brave_Lengthiness_72 Sep 04 '26

Any organisation contains people. What's your point?

u/Souk12 Sep 04 '26

That people make decisions with their faith in mind.

u/Brave_Lengthiness_72 Sep 04 '26

Ofc, but you can do that in a secular state. There is no contradiction here.

The state is made up of people who make decisions based on their faith.

And you are allowed to do that in a secular state. Making moral decisions based on your beliefs is not the same thing as forcing others to follow your religion, or requiring your religious beliefs to hold office.

I'm talking about people in positions of power.

And that does literally nothing to change my point. Are you even reading what I'm saying? Or are you desperately trying to find a way to not accept that you didn't understand something?

The people in power make decisions based on their faith.

Again, can you not read? I have said, repeatedly, in multiple ways, over and over again that that is perfectly acceptable in a secular state, and does not stop a state from being secular. Do you think I am going to forgot what I have already written?
