The word Secular is easily misunderstood or misinterpreted and sometimes deliberately misused. The term Secular does not mean Godless, as many people in our society will say. The term comes from the Latin saecularis meaning “of the world” and “not of a religion.” The term does not mean against religion or atheistic. A thing that is secular is separate from religion or is not associated specifically with any religion.
