Answer:

New ideas about the political organization of society

Challenging the absolute authority of the Church

Step-by-step explanation:

Secularism is the belief that ideas and society should be separate from religion. It fought against having religious institutes in government. So, during the Renaissance it wanted society to be reorganized in a way that did not involve the church. Additionally, secularism wanted the church to have less power over people outside of Christians and wanted nonreligious organizations to have more power.
