Einer These des taiwanesischen Soziologen Hei-yuan Chiu zufolge ist die religiöse Vielfalt in Taiwan eine Folge der Säkularisierung im späten 20. Jahrhundert. Chiu argumentiert wie folgt: „Nach der Reformation war die römisch-katholische Kirche nicht mehr die einzige heilige Gemeinschaft der westlichen Gesellschaft. Die Entstehung und Entwicklung zahlreicher neuer christlicher Konfessionen ist somit eine Folge der Säkularisierung. Während des Ausnahmezustands galten Regierung und Regierungspartei KMT [in Taiwan] als heilig und unantastbar; selbst religiöse Vereinigungen mussten sich ihnen unterwerfen. Das Ende des Ausnahmezustandes ist somit gleichbedeutend mit der Entsakralisierung von Partei und Regierung“ (Chiu 2001; Übersetzung H.K).
