Secularism, as it relates to Zoroastrianism and the other parent categories in this hierarchy, refers to the belief in the separation of religion and state. It promotes the idea that governmental institutions and decisions should be neutral regarding religious beliefs and practices, and not influenced by them. This principle allows for diverse religious views within a society while ensuring equal treatment under the law. Secularism also emphasizes reason, science, and evidence-based thinking in decision making, coexisting with religious beliefs while maintaining a clear distinction between the two spheres.
