"and secular people would be more likely to use the word, moral,"

When I use the word "moral," I am thinking of the rights and wrongs of human behavior in the context of human relationships. I am thinking about the rights of one human being in regards to another and what a violation of a morally right thing would be. Like, sex out side the sanctions of marriage to me is a morally wrong thing to do. So, yes, I do think the word "moral" and the word "righteous" are synonymous in this application.

I suspect the example that I gave would come across as offensive to some on a purely secular band wagon. So, what what would the secular mean when they use the word "moral?" Is it synonymous with the word "legal." Is it, as some have stated, an individual thing?
