Secularism

Question

Wired Faculty App

State the views to justify religion is a private matter, not a matter of state policy or law.

Solution

The views are:

(i)The state cannot aid any religious institution. It cannot give financial support to educational institutions run by religious communities.

(ii)Nor can it hinder the activities of religious communities, as long as they are within the broad limits set by the law of the land. For example, if a religious institution forbids a woman from becoming a priest, then the state can do little about it.

(iii)If a religious community excommunicates its dissenters, the state can only be a silent witness.

(iv)If a particular religion forbids the entry of some of its members in the sanctum of its temple, then the state has no option but to let the matter rest exactly where it is.
