There is a cute little sleight of hand that the left and the courts have pulled regarding the religion of “secular humanism” or just “humanism” -

it IS a religion for the purposes of free exercise. You may use your “religion” of humanism to “conscientiously object” to serving in combat,

BUT, it is NOT a religion, according to the courts, for “establishment” purposes. IE, a school or government cannot be stopped from promoting and establishing secular humanism as the state religion.
