Secularism seen as obstacle for LDS
"When governments become neutral towards religion, we see less and less protection of religion and religious activities," he said. "Secularism in the world is neutral at best towards religions and hostile at worst. We're seeing more and more that it is hostile, not just neutral, towards religion."
In the United States, secularism could result in changing how the tax code treats nonprofit religious organizations. Ref. Source 7

Comments: I wonder... Is the real worry here about revealing tax obligations? Is that the protection? I'm more concerned that the government wants to start dictating how and where and when I worship.
I really don't know why the church sees secularism as an obstacle. Let people believe what they want. Enough with trying to throw religion down the throat of other people who don't share our belief system you know what am I saying? If we truly believe in religious freedom then leave them alone.
