I was merely pointing out how the word "secular" has been used in religious
literature. It is very common to see references to secular religion, and it
yields neither paradox nor oxymoron. I'm sure one could define both words in
such a way as to make "secular religion" seem self-contradictory, but there
is no need to do that.
