I think you have the question backwards. Who could possibly have the right to stop them, or anybody else for that matter, from practising their own religion? (But, certainly, the Roman Catholic church in France at that time did not agree with my viewpoint, as shown by their readiness to commit mass murder in the name of the Prince of Peace, when they set about their slaughter of the Huguenots.)
Several inaccuracies in the above. We are talking about the legal right to practise, which was given by the Edict of Nantes in 1598. the King who made the edict was Henri IV, who had turned Catholic in order to succeed to the throne, thus ending the Wars of Religion - in which, incidentally, both sides committed mass murder at every opportunity.
Unfortunately, the Edict of Nantes was revoked by Louis XIV less than a century later, leading to a mass exodus of Huguenots from France.
Edict of Nantes
The Edict of Nantes, issued by Henry IV of France, granted the Huguenots significant civil rights, including freedom of worship. It marked the end of the religious wars of France during the 2nd half of the 16th century.
The president Freedom of speech, freedom to worship without persecution, and freedom of the press. Where it protects the president? I have no idea where that came from.
The Edict of Nantes extended to the Huguenots most religious freedoms. They could freely worship as they chose, work in most occupations, and live in most areas of the country without fear of persecution.
They founded their colony to asure freedom of worship for themselves.

So that the Christians could have their freedom to worship and others to worship without fear.

if this is for that hw assignment then it is "persecution"
They were both do with Huguenots (French Protestants).The 1598 Edict of Nantes granted freedom of worship to the Huguenots,and was a major plank in ending the French Wars of Religion.The 1685 Edict of Fontainbleau revoked the Edict of Nantes - Huguenots in France had to convert to Catholicism and leave.As a result,many thousands did indeed leave,going to England,the Dutch Republic,and various German states.This damaged the French economy,as Huguenots made up the bulk of skilled workers in the French textile industry at the time.

Yes, there was freedom of religion in colonial New Jersey. The colony was founded as a haven for religious freedom and tolerance, and its constitution, the Concession and Agreement, guaranteed freedom of worship to all inhabitants. This attracted diverse religious groups, including Quakers, Baptists, and Presbyterians, who were able to practice their faith without persecution.
One reason that the Patriot colonists wanted freedom from Britain was so that they could have religious freedom. They want to worship in their own way.
Freedom!
