The use of the quote from Rambam to argue against secular study is highly disingenuous. It refers to study of idolatry, not secular subjects in university. Rambam himself attended University in Morocco and mastered Greek and Islamic philosophy, science, and medicine. And he urged those who could to study science in order to more better appreciate HaShem’s creation.
