I think you're right, but there are also plenty of people who have been trying to convince me--an agnostic--that secularism is not an ideology. Like most fanatics, those who would rub the word "God" from every public place are convinced their way is OF COURSE not some ideology, it's just "the way things should be."

I'm always on the lookout for those who, whatever they say, try to make their particular religion part of our government, but I have to admit I find the most rabid fanatics--the most hateful ones--are on the secularist side, who pretend they're not pushing an ideology.

I see it on both ends of the spectrum. For every fanatic who wishes to remove all references to God there is another fanatic who wishes to place it everywhere.
