What is the French religon?

Answer 1

Like many countries around the world, the people of France have many different religions.

The government is a secular government and does not recognise any official religion.

The traditional religion of France is Catholicism, and there are many Catholics living in France. Some are non-practicing Catholics, which means they have been baptised and/or confirmed but do not regularly attend Church.

Other religions practiced in France include Islam (France has many Islamic immigrants from North Africa), Protestant Christianity, and Judaism.

Answer 2

The French State is, of course, entirely separate from religious affiliations. Many French people are actively laique - that is, opposed to organized religion. That said, of the religious half of the population, the majority are Christian, and the overwhelming majority of French Christians are Roman Catholic.

Answer 3

By information from CIA world fact book the percentage of different religions in France is as follows

Roman Catholic 83-88%,

Protestant 2%,

Muslims 5%-10%,

unaffiliated 4%

AnswerThe French government does not maintain any records of the statistics of the religion of the inhabitants of France, but a poll taken in 2010 gives the following percentages:

Christianity .. 54% of whom most are Roman Catholic.

Islam ............. 4%

Judaism ......... 1%

Buddhism ...... 1%

Other ............ 4%

No religion .. 31%

Note that those who publicly identify as Muslim make up around 5% to 9% of the total population, so the lower figure in these statistics would reflect private, personal views. In fact, only 34% of French people say they believe there is a God, so some religious identification is not based on fundamental belief.
