Secularists irrespective of faith or disbelief believe that all people r free and equal and have a right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Islamist do not hold these universal truths, it doesn't matter if you call yourself moderate or extremist, you have a problem that someone can hold opposite views to yourselves and still be free to do so and equal before the law. You even regulate people choices by banning alcohol, zina, gays, etc and u argue it's immoral but we secularists are not talking about if it's moral or not because we are not god to judge what is moral and not unlike u fuckin islamist nazis who think your god on earth and can judge and execute people over matters of choice and faith.
We secularists defend and hold dearly to the principle of freedom as our foundation not GOD or Holy Laws but Freedom of the people. A person has the right to do immoral things or say immoral things that u may hate or disagree with but he is just as free and equal as you are.
@Rooble44 these losers talk about what people choices and beliefs are as if it's fundamental law they need to regulate to create some sort of utopian society that lacks individual rights. Watch how they dodge the issue of freedom with absurd things like 'are u free to kill, rape, steal, pedofilia'. Your freedom is clearly defined in human rights as you cannot harm or force others but u have a right to exercise those beliefs and choices without any discrimination before the law or state. The state isn't god in our eyes, a bunch of sheikhs are not our god, I don't want to be judged by men for matters which are 'personal sins' in their religion, it's not your soul, if i want to go to hell, why u stopping me from choosng it? U stop people from practising their disbelief or other idealogies in public, u restrict people personal choices like zina, alcohol, pork, gay as if you are some sort of 'elected of god' to go around monitor and punish on behalf of god. War I don't believe your god nor the state nor do I accept you judge me before a public court for my moral or religious views.
The Pharisees or Jews of Jesus time used to be religious police and their headquarter was their temple and their ulama council was called the sanhedrin, jesus looked at these fuckers and said 'you are dead inside' but are trying to look holy on the 'outside' and condemned them to hell. Why? it's none of your business what people religious views or morality is, go mind your own business and stop acting like hypocrite when your dead inside so much you think by putting on a show in public is going to win u browny points? your worship and god is bunch of men like the pharisees, u only use god as an excuse but in reality it's society that u DESIRE
