I can't recall ever hearing anyone discussing a "secular democracy" - or
anything reasonably similar in sense to those words - ever suggest it
included a belief in some sort of supernatural being, a "theos", if you
will...so, no, whatever it may be, a secular democracy is not a State
Religion, it's not a religion of any kind. Not even a belief in the "State"
as, say, the "thing that gives us all meaning" would qualify it as a
religion.
