In contemporary politics, religious activism as a component of conflict and opponency to the state mechanism reveals itself in two ways. Religion becomes politicized; and coversely, politics are religionized. The contradiction and asserts that the underlying cause of the global resurgence of religion in the last decades is “the secularization of the sacred that has been at the center of the process by which the civilization of the western world developed” (2005, p. 2). Within this context, the secular nation state is criticized from the religious point of view by the adherents of different religions. Nevertheless, the relationship of the nation state, religion and nationalism as an ideology is quite complex.
