Question 5: A. What we call “fundamentalism� has always existed in a symbiotic relationship with a secularization that is experienced as cruel, violent and invasive.
B. Historically, wherever secular governments were established to separate religion and politics, a counter-cultural movement developed in response, determined to bring religion back into public life.
C. In the developing world, secularization usually came with colonial rule; it was hence seen as a foreign import and rejected as profoundly unnatural.
D. All too often an aggressive secularism has pushed religion into a violent riposte.
The key ideas of the sentences are summarized as follows:
A - Fundamentalism and secularization always coexist. The secularization is seen as “violent, cruel and invasive� by the other side.
B- Historically, wherever an attempt was made to separate religion and politics, a counter-cultural movement sprung up.
C- Secularization came with colonial rule and was hence rejected in the developing world.
D- “Aggressive� secularism instigates a violent reply from religion.
It is clear from the above that while A, B and D only talk of secularism and fundamentalism, option C stands out as the one with a different idea- linking secularism with colonial rule.
The paragraph makes sense when put in the order ABD.
The question is " Choose the Sentence that does not fit in "
Choice C is the correct answer.
