religion is just too objective. Americans don't allow fanatical Jihads
to take place (9/11), why should France allow Fanatical Christians to practice, who knows what they'll do! Besides France and the rest of Europe has seen the effects of Christian Fanatics (Nazi's/WW2)
Believe in What ever you want to, but religion is a crock anyway, if you believe in god, or gods, or satan for that matter, you've been brain washed. Or your so emotionally pathetic that you need that crutch in your life.
If there was a god we would not have to be taught religion, we would be born knowing it. I was born Not knowing of any God, so now I know there is no god.
And do Americans not see that there country is as fanatically Christan as Iran is Muslim?
Become a Buddhist, all you have to believe in is that its better to live life without malice

This looks more like an anti-sect campaign. I can understand them wanting to protect their language, but I couldn't imagine why they would want to control religion. I could be wrong, of course.
I am an agnostic (not an atheist), though, and it is my personal opinion that religions should't even exist. I find that religions are just as unfounded as sects, though not as extremist and dogmatic. The only real purpose of religions is to give people a common code of ethics (not to say control them), in a convoluted and indefinite manner, along with hundreds of useless rituals.

You took the words right out of my mouth, so to speak.

One thing that you have more in the States is freedom of religion, I mean you do have so many crazy, whacko sects over there. The Catholic church in Europe has, or thinks it has way to much power. They always try and beat down other groups that might take their trade away, Greece is even worse for this type of thing. Spain used to be really bad like this. Personally I think they should all be banned. A little extreme perhaps, I know
