Abstract

Even though the legacy of secularization has been established as an integral part of contemporary society, numerous tendencies with the aim to challenge and invalidate it are also existent. Those tendencies, with possible harmful consequences, include the idea that secularization does not stand for something indisputable. Therefore it seems necessary to recall what its legitimate basics are, primarily as it is the topic that is not solely an academic issue but also an important factor in terms of organization and quality of a daily life. In this paper we will particularly reflect on ethical aspects of secularization, i.e. the relationship between secularization and morality.
