Best Answer

The Revolution not only transformed the French government but also attempted to completely transform French society. The leaders of the new government wanted to erase all connections to old ways of life, including religion. Many clergy members lost their positions. In Paris the local government closed the churches. To replace Roman Catholicism, Robespierre created the cult of the Supreme Being, in which enthusiasm for the Revolution was the object of worship.
