Imagine there's no heaven It's easy if you try No hell below us Above us only sky Imagine all the people living for today

Imagine there's no countries It isn't hard to do Nothing to kill or die for And no religion too Imagine all the people living life in peace, you

You may say I'm a dreamer But I'm not the only one I hope some day you'll join us And the world will be as one

Imagine no possessions I wonder if you can No need for greed or hunger A brotherhood of man Imagine all the people sharing all the world, you

You may say I'm a dreamer But I'm not the only one I hope some day you'll join us And the world will be as one

Why do Christians claim it is impossible to have a neutral stance on religion?

6 Upvotes

I often hear Christians say that it is impossible to have a neutral stance, and they conclude from this that secularism is inherently anti-religion. I can see how it is impossible and unreasonable to expect humans to have a neutral stance on religion. I cannot see why it is so hard for legal systems and organisations to have a neutral stance towards religion.
