"世俗主義は自分のために善良であることを教えます。"
— Richard Dawkins

Simplified Meaning:
Secularism is the idea that we should do good things and be good people, not because a religion tells us to, but because it is the right thing to do. Imagine you see someone drop their wallet. Picking it up and returning it to them, not because you think you'll earn points in heaven, but simply because it’s the kind thing to do, is an example of this idea. It’s like helping a friend just because they need help, not because you expect something in return. When we follow this way of thinking, our actions are motivated by a sense of fairness and compassion. This approach helps build a society where people care for each other out of genuine concern, creating a better and more supportive community for everyone.
