The secular elite don’t want to hear the name of Jesus Christ because it makes them feel guilt. And for them, that is a feeling that is absolutely unnecessary....................
I expect on one level you're right but I also think that it's because they don't want anyone other than government (themselves) to arbitrate right and wrong.
It never ceases to floor me when I start a secular humanists talking about how one knows the difference between right and wrong. They are absolutely stupid on the issue and you'll see a lot of it on exhibit in the comments on the Hume/Woods story.
C.S. Lewis in the first few chapters of “Mere Christianity” explains that guilt reflex to a “T”.
