Oh, c'mon. Can we at least agree upon the fact that secularism (when implemented properly) is a good thing. This is not something to celebrate. Please go back to the 7th century where you belong.
Desecularization of politics in heavily Islamic countries isn't a good thing. In the greater Middle East region (and especially central asia), frankly, it's in the best interests of minority religious groups in those countries (Christians, Atheists, Zoroastrians, etc) that the government remain secular instead of caving to populist Islamic movements like Whabbism, Hizb ut-Tahir, and Akramiya[1]. Trends show increased Islamist radicalization in Southern Kyrgyzstan as the population desecularizes. Many ISIS fighters are from Uzbekistan & Kyrgyzstan. This is not a good thing.[2]--IluvAviation (talk) 21:39, 9 August 2017 (EDT)
