Most reliable academic sources describe him as secular leanings, as I did, and not a secularist. This use of secularist would be a contradiction.
No it can't. He was Roman Catholic, through and through.
Well, I agree with the first one, however the term 'freethinker' is practically a meaningless term now-a-days.
Eh, all universities not built by the Church itself were considered separate from the Church. Though, there's no evidence that he did it to provide a more "secular education", whatever that means, especially since Thomas Aquinas attended it.
