2. My Problem with Secularism is...
that it discredits anyone who may have a philosophy of life that may be religiously aligned. Almost as if to say that you are a fool is you are a Christian, Buddhist, Hindu, Jewish, etc.

My problem with this faith-based initiatives is that it tends to exclude any other faith that isn't theirs.

While most people deeply spiritual life without declaring it - including atheists and agnostics, it is only the minority that insist on imposing their beliefs on others.
