A utopia is an idealized social construct largely relegated to fiction and sociological thought experiments. In a utopia everybody gets along and does not need much if anything. In theory all have equal rights to food, shelter, and other basic needs. There are many suggested forms of utopia suggested: Eco, Technological, Religious, Science, Economic, etc.
There are others, but it boils down to any given system and the will of the people over all. The moment someone decides to take over or people start to grow disillusioned. All attempts have failed to produce a viable society and have broken down. (See Plato's Republic.)
Proponents of any one of these will argue with their dying breath how the other ones are the devil, however the truth is that each has their pros and cons. The fact is they're a pipe dream because human nature: greed and selfishness.

A board dedicated to the discussion of the NCAA Football and Madden Football video game series. Features many interesting and funny characters. The only place where an Auburn fan and an Alabama fan can agree on SOMETHING!
I went to Utopia today and saw another BCS thread. I thought I was gonna flip, until ECH made another one of his interesting threads!

A state in which your perfectly buzzed but you have yet to reach the stage of being totally drunk or blackout.

A utopia is the ideal state of society in which every human need is adressed. The is no social or physical deprivity and humanity is free to grow and flourish at its leisure. There is no opression, war, poverty, famine, or social distress or racism. Although it is higly unlikely that humanity will reach a true utopia it is possible to better living conditions to be close to one.
It would be entierly possible to achieve a social state close to that of a utopia by the complete mechanization of labor and production. If all goods and services are produced by robots, humanity will be free from the maintenece of infrastructure and thus be able to rid itsself from all of the things mentioned above, something remenicient of the book Utopia by Issac Asimov

Utopia in Four Steps
Chapter 1: Don’t be a Bitch
If you’re reading this, you’re a bitch. But you can change. Trust the process.
Chapter 2: Life as a Non-Bitch
Not being a bitch includes:
- Clapping cheeks
- Obtaining a bag
Yep. That’s it.
Chapter 3: Spreading the Message
After spreading cheeks in chapter 2, it’s time to spread the message. Look for any bitch you can find, and de-bitch them.
Chapter 4: A Bitchless Society
Now that we are bitchless with bitches, we can live in a utopia.

A utopia typically describes an imaginary community or society that possesses highly desirable or nearly perfect qualities for its members. It was coined by Sir Thomas More for his 1516 book Utopia, describing a fictional island society in the New World. However, it may also denote an intentional community. In common parlance, the word or its adjectival form may be used synonymously with "impossible", "far-fetched" or "deluded".
Hypothetical utopias focus on—amongst other things—equality, in such categories as economics, government and justice, with the method and structure of proposed implementation varying based on ideology. Lyman Tower Sargent argues that the nature of a utopia is inherently contradictory because societies are not homogeneous and have desires which conflict and therefore cannot simultaneously be satisfied. To quote:
There are socialist, capitalist, monarchical, democratic, anarchist, ecological, feminist, patriarchal, egalitarian, hierarchical, racist, left-wing, right-wing, reformist, free love, nuclear family, extended family, gay, lesbian and many more utopias Naturism, Nude Christians, ... Utopianism, some argue, is essential for the improvement of the human condition. But if used wrongly, it becomes dangerous. Utopia has an inherent contradictory nature here.

His Utopia is not a chimerical commonwealth but a practical improvement on what already exists.
Yes, Darcy's Utopia will be a secular society.
