What is the objective, or what are the objectives? There is no single answer. Basically, if you eliminate religion, you eliminate morality and human rights. Those in power will do whateverthey can to stay in power. Worst case - Nazi Germany. "Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely. Great men are almost always bad men, even when they exercise influence and not authority."
[1887 LD. Acton Letter in Life & Letters of Mandel Creighton (1904) I. xiii.]
A religious state can be just as bad. Examples: extremist Islam (Iran, Saudi Arabia), India - Hindu and the treatment of the Dalits (Untouchables).
In the United States of America we have freedom OF (not from) religion thanks to our founding fathers. God and Judeo-Christianity is basic to the fabric and morality of the country without imposing it on anyone. As such, the US is a secular state. What is the objective of the government? Answer: The greater good of all the people of the country and, when possible, the rest of the world.
