Did you tick “no religion” on the census?
If you did, then you’re part of a growing group of Aussies.
But does no religion mean you don’t have beliefs? Not really. We call the no-religion belief “secularism.”
The story of secularism is that public truth is really just limited to observable facts. Everything else is private opinion.
Truth is like a rock covered by all these barnacles called religions. Once we scrape away the, we’ll get to reality. That’s how the story goes anyway.
