Description:his essay describes the religious diversification in Mexico that leads to a recomposition of religions and politics. Evangelicals represent a new political actor that challenges secularism. Recently they have established unusual strategic alliances that challenge to rethink secularism for Mexico. The constitutional framework of Mexican secularism was thought to contain the direct action of Catholic ducts in politics, but in the present it is exceeded. This essay takes up the proposal of the equilateral triangle of the contemporary secularism of Baubérot (2007) to reflect on the dilemmas and the possible ways to achieve a secularism that contemplates both religious pluralism, State-church separation, and freedom of conscience and its consequences.
