Watch this new animation for schools by #HumanistsUK. When it comes to #religion or belief, the state should treat and protect everyone equally. In a diverse society, secularism helps make that possible. Find out more about #secularism today! https://understandinghumanism.org.uk/secularism/ #humanism #humanists

What is secularism?

Made for schools and families, the animation introduces secularism in clear terms as a practical way of organising society that people with different worldviews can share.

“Nu vă temeți, Eu am biruit lumea!” – creștinul în fața secularismului acestei lumi Daţi deci Cezarului cele ce sunt ale Cezarului şi lui Dumnezeu cele ce sunt ale lui Dumnezeu. Auzind aceasta, s-au minunat şi, lăsându-L, s-au dus. (Matei 22:21-22) 👉 https://c.aparatorul.md/psh7r 👈 #EducațiaReligioasă #Scriptură #Secularism #SfinţiiPărinţi

Obviously, the CAQ government and CAQists are A-OK w/ Catholic school names... xenophobes and antisemites always are...

Melançon: Time to remove religious names from our public schools

As the CAQ government ramps up its rhetoric about secularism in our education system, the contradiction appears as clear as daylight.

"Instead of seeing authoritarianism as inherently gendered and violent, as an inevitable feature of patriarchy, as a system that justifies itself by co-opting any moral framework, you view it as either “uniquely Islam”, an “Abrahamic religions issue”, or “proof that all religions are oppressive.” Why don’t you name a secular, non-authoritarian, non-misogynistic nation-state, then?"

Share this with your imperial feminist friends.

Orientalism and the Denial of Muslim Political Agency

A critique of Orientalism in Western political frameworks and how it denies Muslim political agency and dehumanises Islamic resistance.

I don't like how fellow Muslims talk about Islam to Western audiences. It's always defensive. Taking the offensive stance once in a while is necessary. Islam doesn't need defending. It's those who paint it as dangerous that need to explain themselves.

Read my critique of Western political frameworks. Consider it a mirror for those who claim to be allies in the West and “anti-imperialist.”

Hemant Mehta's critique of GOP's anti-Muslim rhetoric:
Writer and activist Hemant Mehta is sounding the alarm over Senator Tuberville's recent demands to expel Muslims from the U.S. Mehta highlights that:
These statements are a direct violation of the First Amendment.
Labeling an entire global religion as a "cult" is a calculated move to strip away citizenship rights.
