Secular Vs. Demonic
Typically when referring to something "secular" people associate whatever is being referred to as demonic. Meaning "secular" things have a very negative connotation only due to the lack of religious connection. People are naturally very extreme and therefore if "secular" is not religious it has to be anti-religious, therefore, demonic.
