"Continuing over a long period of time"
Interesting! Thanks. I was totally not aware of that alternate definition.
Latin sæculum ("era, generation, century") came to be associated with the ever-changing human, political, worldly order, as contrasted with the divine one. Secular time moves in circles; divine time spins in place.
Compare temporal, which is also used to mean "worldly" (as opposed to divine).
