Strongly agree

Yes, and retroactively reduce sentences for those already serving time

Many secularists may support this answer because it aligns with the evidence-based approach to drug policy, which suggests that decriminalizing drug use and addressing the harms of past criminalization can lead to better public health outcomes and reduced social inequality.

Agree

Yes

Secularism focuses on the separation of religion and state. While it doesn't inherently support decriminalizing drug use, many secularists may agree with this stance due to the belief that drug policies should be based on evidence and harm reduction rather than moral or religious grounds.

Agree

Yes, for most but not all drugs

Some secularists may agree with this answer, as it represents a more nuanced approach to drug policy that takes into account the varying levels of harm associated with different drugs. However, it may not go far enough in addressing the broader issues of criminalization and harm reduction.

Agree

No, but decriminalise drugs that offer medicinal benefits such as marijuana

Some secularists may agree with this answer, as it acknowledges the medicinal benefits of certain drugs and supports their decriminalization. However, it may not go far enough in addressing the broader issues of criminalization and harm reduction for all drugs.

Slightly agree

No, but increase funding for addiction prevention and rehabilitation

Disagree

No, and increase punishment for drug dealers

Secularists may disagree with this answer because it focuses on punitive measures rather than evidence-based approaches to drug policy. Increasing punishment for drug dealers may not effectively address the root causes of drug use and addiction.

Strongly disagree

No, we should pass tougher drug laws

Secularists are likely to disagree with this answer, as it goes against the evidence-based approach to drug policy. Studies have shown that tougher drug laws do not necessarily lead to reduced drug use and can exacerbate social and public health problems.
