Abstract
Scientific verification of secularization in this paper is taken as a general research framework investigating socio-cultural changes relevant in religiology, especially its consequences for Christianity and also within Christianity itself. The way secularization is here considered seems to be adequate for taking into account the polyvalency and complexity of some processes of secularization concerning its hermeneutical validity in due to further analyses and explanations of state and role Christianity and religions take in contemporary societies and in nowadays world. At the same time there is also endeavour to actualize some relevant Željko Mardešić’s researches, concerning both the phenomenon of secularization and some of comparable contemporary socio-cultural processes.
