Problematyczna obecność religii w przestrzeni publicznej

In the article shown dilemmas concerning the presence of religion in public space. It's about the dilemmas raised by the modern and contemporary secular political thought. Modern secular political thought supports the view that religion should depend on policy. Religion should be treated like other social institutions. The role of politics is to achieve power and her exercise by building the social order. In fulfilling this task stands in the way religion. Confession of religion in public space causes constant conflicts due to claims of any religion to treat her as the only true. Put forward by Voltaire and Rousseau radical secularism was supposed to protect the public space from the religious sources of social conflict. Contemporary secular political thought inspired by postmodernism indicates that from public space should be eliminated each social institution that acts as spokesman of objective truth because the objective truth is the first and main source of destabilizing the social order in the state.
