That's certainly the way Fox News tries to portray secularism. In my experience, it has no basis in reality.

There has to be a name for the rhetorical strategy that goes something like "your opinions or observations are sufficiently similar to media_influencer_I_dont_like regardless of their actual origin, and thus I'm able to discount what you are saying outright". Every time this topic comes up, even when it's in a more interesting and philosophical thread like this one, the Fox News bogyman always gets trotted out. TFA is from ... The Atlantic, if you haven't noticed.

You are misinterpreting my comment. I am discounting their comment because it does not correspond to my experience at all, not because it comes from Fox News. I am, instead, using Fox News to possibly explain the origin of that opinion, since it certainly cannot come from observation of reality.
