Fascism is not secular in the agnostic sense, rather it sees the state as a spiritual reality with it's own unique character, means, and ends. For that reason, it cannot allow religious organizations to place themselves above it. Philosophically speaking, it's pantheist rather than atheist or agnostic.
Amusingly, Evola stated while life was difficult for him under Fascist Italy, he never ended up put on trial for his beliefs like he was by the "democratic" Allies. Perhaps Mussolini's prophetic line will come true. Fascism will be seen as more and more golden when people realize that the idol of liberty is something jealously guarded by liberalism, something kept to oneself and denied to others.
That's a good observation. lol.
And interesting spiritual stance. Does Fascism follow any particular religion in this or allow people to choose their own as long as the doctrines of whatever religious school of choice one chooses don't undermine unity in the state?
Fascism was primarily molded by the Neo-Hegelian idealism of Giovanni Gentile and not any particular religion. It never set itself against religion as a whole, and tolerated both Christianity and Islam, although it experienced tension with the Vatican for obvious reasons.
