France is a country where freedom of religion and freedom of thought are guaranteed by virtue
of the 1789 Declaration of the Rights of Man and of the Citizen. The Republic is based on the
principle of lacit (or "freedom of conscience") enforced by the 1880s Jules Ferry laws and the
1905 French law on the Separation of the Churches and the State. Roman Catholicism, the
religion of a majority of French people, is no longer the state religion that it was before the
French Revolution and throughout the various, non-republican regimes of the 19th century (the
Restoration, the July Monarchy and the Second French Empire).
Major religions practised in France include Catholic Christianity, Islam, Judaism, various
branches of Protestantism, Hinduism, Russian Orthodoxy, Armenian Christianity, and Sikhism
amongst others, making it a multi confessional country. While millions in France continue to
attend religious services regularly, the overall level of observance is considerably lower than in
the past.[1][2] According to the Eurobarometer Poll conducted in 2010,[3] 27% of French
citizens responded that "they believe there is a God", 33% answered that "they believe there is
some sort of spirit or life force", and 40% answered that "they do not believe there is any sort of
spirit, God, or life force". This makes France one of the more secular countries in the world.
France created in 1995 the first French parliamentary commission on cult activities which led to
a report registering a number of religious groups considered as socially disruptive and/or
dangerous.
