    I think you mean non secular state, secular means without respect to religion.

    Edit: or are you saying the state should not be neutral to religion (definition of secular), but dismiss it entirely?

      I am saying that being a state tolerant of religion is clearly not working. An atheistic state would be more just to residents.

        What you’re describing is the Laicité that is a cornerstone of French politics and promotes state institutions free “from” religion, not just freedom “of” religion.

        An atheistic society would also be secular. Unless it turns out that I don’t know what that word means…
