That's like saying kids shouldn't go to school til they can read. Religion, despite many flaws, is a powerful mechanism for social good. Felix Adler recognized this in founding Ethical Culture Society. Until nonreligion is effectively institutionalized, its important teachings will remain unlearned.

"Understood against the backdrop of rising nonreligion, a transformation towards personalized, more detailed texts highlights emergent ways of processing & commemorating death ... in contrast to transcendent outlooks, obituaries do not reference deities, but rather focus on the here-and-now" (p.18).

What death doulas can teach us about dying well without religion
As religious affiliation declines, the rituals and guidance it once provided around dying have disappeared for many people. Death doulas fill that gap.

Useful framework to explain late stages of #secularization: "In some contexts, the cultural 'default' among the young is no longer religion but 'nonreligion' ... it is the religious whose beliefs & identities depart from those legitimated & authorized by the sacred secular canopy" (p.2, 16).

Greenway on Distinguishing Religion From Nonreligion
Stephen Greenway (Judicial Law Clerk) has posted Distinguishing Religion From Nonreligion After Catholic Charities, Notre Dame Journal of Law, Ethics, & Public Policy, Volume 40 (forthcoming 2026) on SSRN. Here is the abstract: States may impose certain limits on the availability of religious exemptions without violating the First Amendment. For instance, the Supreme Court of the United States has recognized that States may limit the availability of religious exemptions to those with sincere religious beliefs.
