- 1不信教的、沒有宗教情懷的；若帶反對意味，則是「反宗教的」
Someone who is irreligious is against religion, or has no religious feeling. The word can describe a person, a book, a joke, or a whole time in history. It is a fairly careful, word. It is stronger than just “does not go to church”: a person can skip services and still feel religious; an irreligious person does not have that feeling, or pushes against it. Though actually, English also has words like non-religious and secular, which often mean “not tied to a religion” without the extra bite of being opposed. Irreligious can cover both “has no faith” and “is hostile to faith,” so you have to hear the tone.
組成From Latin irreligiōsus. By the pieces you can see: ir- (not) + religious.
