You do not have to b e a rocket scientist to recognize that Secular law has bested Religious laws.

This may be why even Muslims and Christians are choosing Secular laws when available.

Why?

Because Secular law is more forgiving and logical as opposed to Religious law.

Secular law demands and allows equality of women, Gays and slaves. Religious laws do not yet do not give a good logic trail for discriminating against these sub groups of our societies.

As our knowledge of life has increased, Secular laws have evolved and improved as opposed to Religious laws that have been stagnant and fixed over time.

This stagnation of old laws ensure that over time, Secular laws will win out over Religious laws for our hearts and minds.
As they should.

I do recognize the good that Churches do in terms of community but if they do not evolve their laws, they are bound to fail. This is likely why most religions have split into various sects depending on the secular progression of the individual communities and religious sects. Most religions today have their hot , medium or soft adherents and sects and this split insures that secularism will increase while religions will shrink.

Are religious laws too entrenched and harsh?
Are secular laws too soft?
Looking at the big picture, am I correct in stating that secularism will win out over religions?
If secularism does win, is that a good thing?
Are women, Gays and slaves better served by secularism or religion?

We call this a "double edged sword".

If you change it, then religious law is fallible. That means that the deity it is based upon is also fallible since one comes from the other.

Religion will be its own undoing. This is being seen in many places... hell, they can't even accept grade-level science due to their doctrine.

The more and more this persists, the more and more religion will stand as the odd man out, and ultimately be discarded.

Are women, gays and slaves better served by secualarism or religion? By secualarism by far. Even the best religions make women 2ed class citizens. Learning,Speech,&Attention Defects | Man with learning disabilities, communication disorders, ADHD, becomes author

@thomascrosthwaite,
Secularism was born out of the enlightenment philosophy, the very philosophy that inspired the US constitution, so it's easy to see the strong influence of secularism in our government. Although this conflicts with people's desires to have their religions placed on a pedestal above all others. Take the protest of removing the 10 commandments from courthouses, for instance.

Yet all swear on the Bible.

I have no problem with our true God in court but I do have a problem with a God that thinks that genocide is good justice.

No one is required to swear on the bible, most people choose to swear on the bible. You can swear on the torah, the quran, or you can swear on a lawbook.

The New Testament tells you, very directly, to swear not at all. Aren't believers weird!

"Realigion will be its own undoing- they can't even accept grade level science due to their doctrine. I agree. This would have happen many years ago if it wasn't for indoctionation and isolation. This is why they want to control the schools, and have been somewhat successful. I believe that some preachers are honest and just don't know any better, while other are only interested in gainning power by any means possible including deception.
