Worldly way to put the wrong clause right (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

secular

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'worldly' is the definition.
(I know that worldly can be written as secular)

'wrong clause right' is the wordplay.
'wrong' is an anagram indicator.
'right' becomes 'r' (common abbreviation).
'clause' is an anagram of 'secula'.
'secula'+'r'='SECULAR'

'way to put the' is the link.
I am not very happy about this link. Some or all of it may be part of another bit of the clue.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for secular that I've seen before include "Not religious or sacred" , "Non-church" , "associated with those who are 21 [LAYMEN]" , "Layman's" , "Ignoring God" .)
