Secular religion

Common card · No. 352843

A secular religion, also known as a political religion, is a communal belief system that appears to share common features with enterprises usually thought of as "religious", but which rejects belief in a god or gods and the broader metaphysical aspects of the supernatural, instead placing typical religious qualities in material entities, institutions, or systems. Some secular religions were explicitly identified as such by their founders, including the Religion of Humanity, the Cult of Reason, and the Cult of the Supreme Being. Other ideological systems that have been characterized as secular religions include: various forms of communism (including Maoism and Juche,), scientism, anarchism, fascism, and Nazism.
