✔Elements of Secularisation✔

There are some elements of secularisation.

1. Decline of religiosity:


In a perfectly secularized society religious considerations are replaced by rationalistic considerations. In this process of secularization two areas such as social institutions and individual actions are becoming increasingly free from the influence of religion.

2. Rationality:

In this process of secularization two things occur:

(а) Decline in religious control over individual and social behaviour.

(b) Increase in rational attitude towards different events of individual and social life.

A tendency is developed towards establishment of cause and effect relationship.

✳✳✳✳✳

3. Empiricism:

It includes three main areas:

(a) Objective observations:

(b) Experimentation

(c) Verification.

Secularism tries to interpret the facts through empiricism. For human knowledge is based on these three things. A member of a secular state makes himself free from blind belief, prejudice and superstitions.

4. Process of differentiation:

Due to empiricism and rationality different aspects of social life come to be differentiated from religion. Each aspect, i.e. economic, political, social, legal etc. has its own specialized functions. Religious norms and values cannot influence all these aspects of social life.

✳✳✳✳✳

5. Scientific world view:

It is another important element of secularization. The members of a secularized society try to co-relate between cause and effect of an event. Progress into scientific world view reduces superstition which are attached to religion.

✳✳✳✳✳

6. Social dynamism:

Without social dynamism, secularization cannot take place. Social dynamism indicates the acceptance of new ideas and values. It makes the individual free from the religious control and encourages to have scientific world view.
