Secular Right

In American politics, the term Secular Right refers to but is not exclusive to the libertarian, socially liberal or non-religious wing of most conservative movements or parties.
==Beliefs==
Most secular conservatives are fiscally conservative, favoring laissez-faire capitalism or a free-market, and are proponents of such policies as a large and heavily funded national defense system, a relaxation of gun control laws and the destruction of welfare state politics like most other conservatives.
However, on social issues, such as same-sex marriage, separation of church and state, abortion, public decency, obscenity laws and narcotic regulation, a large percentage of the Secular Right tends to favor deregulation of some or all of these practices, although may not necessarily agree with said practices.
Heather Mac Donald, who calls the Secular Right "Skeptical Conservatives", describes the group in an article of The American Conservative.

In November 2008, Mac Donald, Walter Olson, Razib Khan, and John Derbyshire started the Secular Right blog.http://corner.nationalreview.com/post/?q=MzRlMjY0YjIwMzk4MDdhOGM4YjEwNjU5ODFhN2JhOTA=http://www.secularright.org
