THIS IS NOT A RELIGIOUS DEBATE THREAD!! I just wanted to know the general religious background of this site.
Agnostic. Believe in a God but do not associate with any paticular religion. For me, thats ultimate secularism, practiced not just in politics but in the daily life, second from Athiesm. True secularists should also practise such in there daily lives.

I see god in everything I do. :shrug:
So how bad of secularists are Muslim Turks?
They seem to be doing a decent job of it.
Agnostic is very distinct from atheist. Atheist is a leap of faith.
Myself, I'm Roman Catholic.

But if one feels so strongly about his or her religion, it will, regardless of how secular you claim to be, inevitable spill over into your political views.
Everyone is an agnostic because no one knows, however there is no faith required to disbelieve or be skeptical of one's supernatural claims.
So just how is your lack of belief in Zeus a leap of faith?
Define strong. In what way?
Someone who follows Islam to the last word of the Quaran, someone who lives and swears by it and implements it throughout his/hers daily life, decisions and views. And if not all that, than just one thing can dictate you are not truly secular; someone who is Muslim/Christian etc and is therefore biased to that sect. Secularists are not biased towards religion and there biased does not shape there foreign policy.
