Dear Santosh, A secular state does not give preference for any religion, all religions are equally respected. The religious rights of every citizen are respected. The secular state cannot say that "all religions are equal". Being an agnostic, you will not be able to appreciate this point, since all religions are superstitions for you. Regards. Fr.Ivo
