There is no secularism, if civil laws of a society are shaped to serve the needs/orders of a religion.
Turkey is in no shape to model other Islamic countries, with this crowd in government. The reality is that she may become just one of the others.

Origins of Secularism as a Non-Religious, Humanistic, Atheistic Philosophy
Despite its importance, there isn't always a great deal of agreement on just what secularism really is. Part of the problem lies in the fact that the concept of "secular" can be used in a couple of ways which, while closely related, are nevertheless different enough to make it difficult to know for sure what people might mean. The word secular means "of this world" in Latin and is the opposite of religious. As a doctrine, secularism is usually used to describe any philosophy which forms its ethics without reference to religious dogmas and which promotes the development of human art and science.

How does your definition differ from what I said ?
"There is no secularism, if civil laws of a society are shaped to serve the needs/orders of a religion."
