Mr. Stolyarov lays out six points on which all reasonable religious people should be expected to agree with atheists, agnostics, and other secularists for the purposes of preserving a civilized, humane, tolerant society. The purpose of the Minimal Secular Agenda Regarding Religious Belief (MSARRB) is to de-escalate many of the tensions that currently exist between believers and non-believers in the United States and to greatly reduce the scope of the present “culture wars.” Mr. Stolyarov’s agenda does not require the religious to abandon their religious beliefs, but merely asks many of them to change their views about non-religious persons, to restrict the scope of religion-based decision-making to the non-coercive private sphere, and to refrain from inserting religion into private non-ideological business endeavors – where it does not belong.
