Colleges and universities have long offered majors in religion or theology.
But with more and more people now saying they have no religion, one college
has decided to be the first to offer a major in secularism.
Starting this fall, Pitzer College, a small liberal arts institution in
Southern California, will inaugurate a department of secular studies.
Professors from other departments, including history, philosophy, religion,
science and sociology, will... 阅读全帖

http://www.amateur-investor.net/Secular_Bear_Markets_vs_Secular%20Bull_Markets.htm
The average length of the previous 3 Secular Bear Markets was 18 years with
a minimum of 16 years and a maximum of 21 years. Thus if you add 18 years
to the year 2000 and take + or - 3 years on either side then the next
Secular Bull Market may not begin until sometime in the 2015 to 2021 time
period.

Militant Islam on the rise in secular Syria

Staunchly secular Syria is seeing an Islamic revival, fuelled by anger at the
occupation of Iraq, at violence in the Palestinian territories, and
frustration at the slow pace of internal reform.
Syria has been ruled by the Ba'ath party - socialist, secular and nationalist
- for more than 40 years. Now, however, more people going to the mosque, more

Even Turkey, a muslim country, knows that only secular law shall be applied
to a modern society! China is and will always be a secular country. No one
shall be allowed to justify violence based on ANY religion.
If muslim group believe some han chinese insult their faith, they should
protest peacefully. If they issue death threat, they are basically performing
terrorism and shall be punished accordingly.

You mean atheist, agnostic, etc. (in describing a person).
I think "secular" is more accurately defined as separated from religion or
uninfluenced by religion. It does not mean denying or opposing or ignoring
religion.

Of course in retrospect, you can pinpoint when the secular bull actually
kicked off and you can make sense of all the early signs. My point was that
if the market is not strong enough to break into new high, it's not safe to
say it's a secular bull yet. In fact, in the past years, there were times
that nobody wanted stocks, and we might be still in this 10+ years secular
bear. I'm not hurry in jumping into conclusions on whether the secular bear
has ended or not. Just let the market proves itsel... 阅读全帖

这得看多长时间范围内的了。记得原来看过几个不同的数据,似乎近几十年都在下降
-- 也许这几十年都是一个下降的周期。
再比如说这个数据,
http://www.religioustolerance.org/chr_prac2.htm
A random selection of Americans were asked to rate their general outlook,
ranging from religious to secular:
Outlook ----All adults ---Young (18 - 34)---Senior (over 64)

Somewhat secular --6 -----9 -----------3
Secular ------10 --------14 --------7
Don't know/ refused-9 -----7 -----------9

The Problem with Religious Moderates
We can no longer afford the luxury of political correctness. When religion

(毛骨悚然。)
In recent years many politicians, members of the media and pop culture icons
, posing as paragons of tolerance, charity and virtue have begun to accept

In addition, many who famously inherited a richly blessed conservative
heritage have turned their back on it in favor of wealth, fame, glamour and
acceptance by radically secular, left wing, no growth eco-Marxists.
As these events have u... 阅读全帖
