  Yes there are a few secular states, but less of those that have complete separation of church and state guaranteed by the constitution. USA is the oldest and most well known one.

    There's a big gap from the "only" to "the oldest and most well known". I'm actually a citizen of a constitutional guaranteed secular democracy where politicians very rarely speak about gods or religion, where decriminalizing abortion² was done by popular referendum, where all drug consumption is decriminalized² and where self-proclaimed Christians are generally pro-divorce and pro-contraception. Just because the US had a head start centuries ago, you shouldn't assume you're exceptional today. ¹ (I can't remember the last time it was mentioned. There's certainly no "god bless you" or any other clichés that you're supposed to say) ² (good or bad, they are issues on which religion - and especially Christianity - heavily influences choice)
