You are correct in that systems of government can also be seen as expressions of religion.

The quote Comes from Joseph Ratzinger.
Pancritical simply means applying criticism or reason to everything. Pan as in panoramic, I.e the whole, etc Critical As in Critical Thinking, To Criticise and explore.
I did already define the word for you in essence, re:
"pancritical rationality, Which is a way of thinking that is free of external domination (for example that of a deity & associated Dogma), always regards all assumptions and all results as in principle open to criticism and does not cling stubbornly and dogmatically to any thesis."
