The country with In god we trust printed on their currency, who has "one nation, under god" as part of a pledge that children learn as part of routine schooling, who has the most senior politicians and judicial representatives polarized on religion sure as hell isn't secular in practice.

No, we say the US is secular because it's in the constitution
