Partial secularism and comprehensive secularism – part one

This study tries to remove some of the ambiguity surrounding "secularism" that has become one of the most important terms in analytical discourse, and to reach a comprehensive definition characterized by a high interpretive ability. The author distinguishes between what he calls partial secularism (separation of religion from the state with silence regarding final issues) and comprehensive secularism (separation of human, moral, and religious values from life in both its public and private aspects, and stripping humans and nature of sanctity so that the entire world becomes a utilitarian material employed by the stronger for their own benefit.
