Has the balance of power between religious and secular authority stayed the same or changed since the 11th century?

No, of course not. It has changed dramatically for the good of human beings.

After the total control and dominion of the church during the Middle Ages, the beginning of the Renaissance represented a major change in the way people viewed the influence of the church in their everyday lives. Artistic expressions, architecture, and literature played a major role in trying to make people understand that the church was dogmatic.

However, it was until the advent of the Enlightenment that brilliant thinkers and philosophers came with new ideas about the use of reason and science started to explain the natural phenomenon that in past had been attributed to religious explanations.

Thinkers like Baron de Montesquiou, Jean-Jaques Rosseau, Voltaire, and John Locke introduced innovative concepts about new forms of government, the division of powers, freedom, citizens rights, social contracts, and more. The church was relegated to second place in people's minds.

Today, religion plays an important role in people's private lives, but not in public life. Religion does not interfere anymore in political, economic, or social decisions, and that is a blessing(no pun intended).
