Resumen de Religión, laicidad y modernidad
Religion, Secularism and Modernity In this essay I hold that the notion of secularity should not be equated with atheism or anticlericalism -even though it is, in any case, the opposite to fanaticism-. I also claim that the supposed reconciliation, suggested by Bobbio, of the Catholic Church with the modern language of Human Rights, in reality has simply been the result of a misunderstanding based on an anti-Enlightenment interpretation of language. Hence, it is necessary to define at least some of the grounds of the insurmountable opposition between secular and religious points of view, in order to reaffirm the notion of secularity and its principles as basic preconditions of any true democracy.
