I mentioned "secular zealots who hate individuality" in fairness of my inclusion of "religious zealots".
Just as not all religious people are zealots, not all secular people are zealots.
As mentioned, I'm an atheist. Which would make me a secularist. So if there was any intentional ding, it was against those secular people (like communists) who devalue individuality and its expression through free choice.
As far as saying secularism is never a cause for zealotry, that's just crazy. The French Revolution was filled with secular zealots...
