Bah now your grasping for straws.
No he isn't, he just read the definition
Secularism is the principle of separation between government institutions and the persons mandated to represent the State from religious institutions and religious dignitaries. In one sense, secularism may assert the right to be free from religious rule and teachings, and the right to freedom from governmental imposition of religion upon the people within a state that is neutral on matters of belief. (See also Separation of church and state and Laïcité.) In another sense, it refers to the view that human activities and decisions, especially political ones, should be unbiased by religious influence.[1] (See also public reason.) Some scholars are now arguing that the very idea of secularism will change.[2]
You can easily have a country, with a state religion, that also allows minority religions to exist. Such a country would do things like, have a standard prayer for the sitting of parliament, require mandatory lessons on the state religion in government schools. Perhaps the Clergy of the state religion would form the bulk of the public service or have special ministry roles. So long as the other religions are protected from persecution by law, its still religious freedom.
