    The best option in terms of stating a truth about secularization is Option C. There is a trend toward secularization, but religion is still important in most societies.

    Explanation:

    Secularization refers to the graduate disassociation from religious institutions and religious control or dominance in a society to institutions and politics that are not religiously based but secular. One example is the separation between church and state that is one of the fundamental principles of the US Constitution. In the old monarchical systems of Europe, the state and the church were intertwined, and the church had political power as an entity that owned lands and could make policies. So the idea of a separate church and state was significantly different than it is today. The European Monarch was said to have a divine right to be King. Their authority came directly from God and not from the will of the people. The secularization of society was one principle of the French Revolution as well. The leaders of the French and American revolutions wanted to move away from the model of society where one single religion like the Catholic Church or The Church of England was the overall framework of the whole society.
