<metaphysics, ethics> the view according to which there exist no gods or purely spiritual entities. Sometimes the sense of the word is less strong, connoting something close to humanism, i.e., that affairs of this world should be the most important concerns for ethics and human life (it is in this sense that Aristotelianism and other classical philosophies can be described as secularist). Thus, while atheism is a form of secularism, not every secularist is an atheist. In popular usage, secularism often has the same connotations of immoralism that are imputed more strongly to atheism. (References from atheism, Christianity, humanism, and pessimism.)
