The French Revolution was unfriendly toward the Catholic Church. It was in fact punitive in almost every manner.

France did not reconcile with the Catholic Church until the Concordat between Napoleon and the Pope in 1801.

Was the French nobility a part of the French revolution?

The decline of feudalism made the nobility less important. This was partly because of the rise of the middle class, which included commoners who were as wealthy as or wealthier than many members of the nobility. And it was partly because they had lost their military importance as knights became vulnerable and standing armies reduced their value as a first response. Ultimately, this made life a bit easier for the nobility, as they did not have quite as much responsibility, but were able to buy luxuries supplied by the middle class merchants.
