Liberal State (professed) neutrality on Religion ends up as State-imposed Secularism.

.....At the core of Dignitatis Humanae, translated as "The Dignity of Man", is the crucial observation that "the right to religious freedom has its foundation in the very dignity of the human person" (DH 2). In other words, man's ultimate search for meaning belongs to his very nature. Religious freedom is not a right that is given, or one right among many, but one that is essential to his humanity. Fr. Antonio Lopez...defined culture as "embodied religion". Fr. Lopez explained that  "the horizon of meaning that gives form to social life is rooted in that search for the ultimate, unifying meaning of existence whose full expression we call religion." Referring to Fr. Luigi Giussani, Fr. Lopez emphasized that religion, or man's innnate "religiosity", is not simply "one activity among many, [but] a permanent dimension through which man full expresses his own nature."

     For the Christian, the constitutive experience of religiosity is even more radical because "the event of Christ incarnates the ultimate truth that man's religiosity constantly seeks, Fr. Lopez continued, and demands a free relationship with Christ who is the answer to his ultimate meeting. The Christian belongs to Christ, and understands himself only in relation to Him. Without Christ, the Christian loses himself. To be free, for the Christian, is to be in relationship with Christ. ......As pointed out by Cardinal Scola...through a pre- recorded video, this is the very dimension of man which the modern democratic liberal State is now determined to suppress, even in America.
