Secularism has its own sacraments and sacramentals like the mask, the vax, the pill, abortion, gay unions, pornography or scientism that are attempts to replace and mock the true sacraments.
These misguided attempts to bridge the gap between the spiritual and the physical realms (despite the denial of an intersection between the two or that spiritual realm exists) witness to the schizophrenia of the gnostic secular world order.
