Why France is so concerned about religion?

France and some other countries have been embroiled in a controversy when two students have been expelled from school for wearing a headscarf. France extended the ban and proposed a law banning the use of clothing and symbols openly expressive religious identity. In addition to scarves, this law also includes Christian crosses and Jewish yarmulkes. This law caused a wave of reaction. Muslim countries the UK, USA and Germany condemned the law and stressed that its implementation and deepening tension in France. They also argued that the law was contrary religious freedom and basic human rights. But now, these reactions have not been to the French government to reverse its decision.

We should not interpret what happened in France banning religious symbols, the French fear of religion and religious morality goes back a long time. Those aware of changing social culture and church-state relations in France knows that this type of initiative and the resulting controversies are well known in French society. Moreover, this fear is not limited to Islam and Judaism, the memory of the murder of Catholics during the French Revolution has not yet been erased.

The current form of relations Church and State in France was forged by conflict, hatred, rage and slaughter. The fight began in the eighteenth century against the Catholic Church in order to reduce the influence of the Church in society. We can say that during this period, the company has become distant from spiritual and religious values and materialistic fell under the influence philosophy.

The Enlightenment:

How can European societies away from religious values

This period in which evolutionary ideas materialistic and widely accepted in European society, and influenced to distance themselves from religion, is known as the Enlightenment. Undoubtedly, those who chose this word (as which is characteristic of those ideas that change positively as a movement toward light) were the leaders of this deviation. They described the previous period as "Dark Ages" and accused by their religion, claiming that Europe became enlightened when secularized and held religion at a distance. This skewed perspective false and remains one of the mechanisms of propaganda on the basis of those opposed to religion.

It is true that medieval Christianity was "dark" superstition and fanaticism, and most of them have been cleared in post-medieval period. In fact, the Enlightenment did not bring positive results both in the West either. The most important result of the Enlightenment that took place in France, the French Revolution, which transformed the country into a sea of blood. For most of the intellectuals France, the Enlightenment meant purging the minds of people of all religious and spiritual values. Almost all thinkers who have lived in the eighteenth century France shares this view. The French Revolution was built on the idea of domination rather than enlightenment in France, was one of the most brutal in the modern world, ruthless wild and revolutions. As soon as the Jacobins came to power after the revolution, the first thing they did was use the guillotine, and thousands of people lost head just because they were accused of being rich or religious. One of the leaders of the Revolution under the name of Fouche (his nickname the Butcher of Lyon) sent a commission headed by three people in Lyon to destroy the landlords and the religious aristocracy. In a letter addressed to Robespierre, the leader of the Senate, Fouché wrote that the guillotine was working too slowly and was not happy with the slow progress of the revolution. He wanted permission to make a massive cleanup. The day he was acquitted, thousands people have their hands tied behind him were cut off mercilessly by the guns of the revolution.

Today the Enlightenment influenced the literature praises the French Revolution, but France is the cost of the Revolution and contributed to social conflicts that were to last until the twenty-first century the century. Analysis of the French Revolution and the Enlightenment by the famous British thinker, Edmund Burke, is very revealing. In his book Reflections on the Revolution in France famous, published in 1790, criticized both the idea of the Enlightenment and its fruit, the French Revolution, in his opinion, that movement destroyed the basic values held society as a whole, such as religion, morality and family structure, and paved the way for the terror and anarchy. Finally, consider the Enlightenment we interpret the movement as a "destructive of human intelligence" in January.

The leaders of this movement were Masons destruction. Voltaire, Diderot, Montesquieu and other anti-religious thinkers that paved the way for the Revolution were Masons. The Masons were intimate with the Jacobins, who were the leaders Revolution. This has led some historians to the opinion that it is difficult to distinguish between Jacobinism and Masonry in France of this period.

During the French Revolution, much hostility toward religion. Many clergymen were sent to the guillotine, churches were destroyed, and also were those who wanted to eradicate Christianity altogether and replaced by a perverted, pagan, symbolic religion called "religion of reason." The leaders of the Revolution has also been victims of this frenzy, each finally lose his head on the guillotine, which they themselves had condemned so people. Even today, many French are still wondering if the revolution was a good thing.

The anti-religious sentiments of the French Revolution spread in Europe and therefore the nineteenth century became one of the best times more bold and aggressive anti-religious propaganda.

The struggle against religion in France

The role played by Masons in the revolution has been supported by an agent provocateur "by the name of Count Cagliostro. Cagliostro was arrested by the Inquisition in 1789, and made important admissions while under interrogation. Begins by saying that Masons throughout Europe had been planning a chain of revolutions. He said the main objective of Freemasonry has been destroyed, the Papacy or to take over.

mission of Freemasonry in France does not stop the revolution. The chaos was the result of the revolution was finally settled when Napoleon came to power. But this stability did not last long ambition of Napoleon to article Europe only put an end to his power. Subsequently, the continued conflict in France between the monarchists and revolutionaries. In 1830, 1848 and 1871, had three revolutions other place. In 1848, the "Second Republic" was founded in 1871 the "Third Republic" was created. In 1881, Catholicism ceased to be religion France's official and in 1988 religious education was completely eliminated, the education system.

The Masons were very active during this period of turmoil. Its main objective was to weaken the church and its religious institutions, destroy the values of religion and the influence of its laws in society, and the abolition of education religious. Masons regarded "anti-clericalism" as the center of their social and political activities.

The Catholic Encyclopedia provides information Additional anti-religious mission of the Grand Orient, as French Masonry was known:

According to official documents of French Masonry mainly contained in the official language "Bulletin" and "Report" of the Grand Orient, has shown that all anti-clerical, adopted by Parliament French were decreed beforehand in the Masonic lodges and executed under the direction of the Grand Orient, whose stated goal is to control everything and everyone in France. "Le told the Assembly in 1898, "says Vice-Massé, the official speaker of the Assembly of 1903," is the supreme duty of Freemasonry, involving all the days political and profane struggles. "" Success (in the anti-clerical) is mainly due to the Masons, as its spirit, its program, its methods, which have succeeded. "If the block has been established this is due to the Freemasons and the discipline learned in the lodges "…" We need vigilance and, above all, trust each other, if we do our work unfinished. This work, I know. . . anticlerical happens. The Republic must rid itself of religious congregations, sweeping a strong feature. Half-measures system is dangerous everywhere, the adversary must be crushed at once. "2

The Catholic Encyclopedia continues its account of the fight against the religion of Masonry in France:

In fact, all "anti-clerical" Masonic reforms in France since 1877, such as the secularization of education, measures against private schools and institutions of Christian charity, the suppression of religious orders and the spoliation of the Church, by his own admission lead to a society of anti-Christian and irreligious reorganization of human, not only in France but throughout the world. Thus French Freemasonry, as the standard bearer of all Freemasonry, was intended to inaugurate the Golden universal Masonic Republic, including the Masonic brotherhood all men and all nations. "The victory of Galileo", said President of the Grand Orient, Senator Delpech, September 20, 1902, "has lasted twenty centuries. But now he dies in turn …. The Roman Church based on the myth of Galileo, began to decline rapidly from the day of the Masonic Association was established '3

A "Galileo" Masons say Jesus, because according to the Gospel, Jesus is born in the Palestinian city Galilee. Therefore, the hatred of the Freemasons of the Church is an expression of their hatred for Jesus and for all monotheistic religions. With Darwinian materialistic culture and humanist who created in the nineteenth century, believed it had destroyed religion and restore its pre-Christian paganism of Europe.

When these words were uttered in 1902, a series of laws passed in France has been extended the scope of religious opposition. Three thousand religious schools were closed and forbidden to give any kind of religious education in schools. Many clerics have been arrested, some were exiled and religious groups have begun to be considered second-class citizens. For this reason, in 1904, the Vatican broke all diplomatic relations with France, but that does not change the attitude of the country. Took the loss of the lives of hundreds of thousands of French against the German army in First World War before the country was controlled and arrogant again recognized the importance of spiritual values.

In The Catholic Encyclopedia supports the war against religion, of the French Revolution in the twentieth century, has been carried out by the anticlerical French Parliament adopted the "who" were decreed beforehand in the Masonic lodges and executed under the direction of the Grand Orient. "4 This is clearly in Masonic writings. For example, a quote from a publication Turk "A Speech Made by Brother Gambetta July 8, 1875, in Friendship Lodge Clemente" reads:

While the spectrum of reaction threatened France and religious doctrine and backward ideas went on the offensive against modern social principles and laws, within the worker, the visionary organizations Masonry and the principles of brotherhood, we find strength and comfort in the fight against the extravagant claims of the Church, its ridiculous exaggerations and excesses usual … must be on guard and continue fighting. To determine the ideas of human order, and progress, to support us so that our screens can not be broken. 5

Note that the Masonic literature consistently presents its own ideas as "visionary", while accusing religious "late." However, it is simply pun. The concept of "The Phantom of the reaction," mentioned in the above quotation, is a religious fundamentalists as well, but that Masons used to point the true religion in their attempt to divert people from it. In addition, it is noteworthy that the materialistic and humanistic philosophy espoused by Masons is really a superstitious, backward system of ideas, management of a pagan civilizations of ancient Egypt and ancient Greece.

By Therefore, the Masons use terms like "vision" and "delay" has no basis in reality. In fact, unfounded because the conflict between Masons and religion is nothing but the perpetuation of the conflict between two ideas that have existed since the earliest ages of history. The religion that proclaims The first of these ideas: that humanity was created by the will of God and that humans are responsible for worship. That is the truth. The opposite idea, that human beings were not created, but a life empty and without purpose, it is proposed by those who deny the existence of God. When understood, it is clear that the use of superficial terms of "backwardness" and "forecast" is baseless.

By using the idea of "progress," Masons seek to destroy religion. The Encyclopedia Catholic "states:

The following are considered the main means [of] the Masons:

(1) To destroy radically by persecution opened the church or by a hypocritical fraudulent system of separation of church and state, the social influence of the Church and of religion, insidiously called "clericalism" and, where possible, to destroy the Church and very true, ie, superhuman religion, which is more than a vague cult of fatherland and of humanity;

(2) to secularize, by a system of fraud, even hypocritical "non-sectarianism" all public and private life and, above all, popular instruction and education. "No," sectarianism "as he understands the game of the Big East is anti-Catholic and even anti-Christian, atheistic, positivistic, or agnostic sectarianism in the habit non-sectarianism. Freedom of thought and conscience Children must be developed systematically in children in school and protected as possible, against all disturbing influences, not only of the Church and priests, but also the parents of the children clean, if necessary, including through the restriction physical and moral. Part of the Great Eastern believes it is essential and a foolproof way to ensure the final establishment of the Universal Social Republic … 6

We see that Masonry has a program in place, under the name of "liberation of society, which aims to eradicate the religion, a program that still running. This should not be confused with a model that aims to provide opportunities for all citizens regardless of religious faith to practice their faith freely. Instead, the model proposed by the masonry is a mass brainwashing, designed to eliminate religion in society and the minds of people and, where appropriate, to persecute its followers.

Religious morality is the solution to all problems
The fundamental problem is the lack of religion

Politics French eradication of religion began in the eighteenth century the century and lasted for three centuries, the result has been to transform the country into a nation fears of religion, religious morality and religious. In recent years, and as a result of this process, Muslims and other religious organizations have been attacked. But this fear is unfounded. In fact, this is not religion, but the lack of religion to be feared. Religious morality brings peace, prosperity, justice and tolerance of a society. In a society where the sense of religious morality is strong, can not be violence, degeneration or fear. For this reason, fear of religion France is useless. In societies where war, conflict, violence and injustice take dominion there is no religious morality.

In a society far removed from religion, it is inevitable that most people are selfish, unfair and lack of moral goodness. Only the values of religion provides moral perfection for companies and individuals. Those who have faith in God behave responsibly, because they live only to secure the approval of God and know that report all their actions. Fearing God, carefully avoid bad actions, attitudes and behaviors unleased by God. A society dominated by people who not only becomes a social problem.

However, an incredulous person, without recognizing that he is finally rewarded or punished for their actions do not put limits on their actions wrong. Despite prevent certain forms socially negative behavior, many people do not hesitate to commit other evils when are invited, encouraged or given the opportunity.

In societies where there is no religion, people become susceptible to commit all sorts of immoral acts. For example, a religious person would never take a bribe, play, feel envy, or lie, because knew would have to account for these actions in the afterlife. However, someone who has no religion tends to do these things. It is not enough to say, "I I'm not religious but do not accept bribes, "or" I'm not religious, but I do not play "because a man who fears God and does not believe that will find itself in the other life can take one of those things when the situation or conditions change. A person who says "I'm not religious, but not commit fornication" can do in a place where fornication is considered normal. Or someone who says he does not accept bribes may say, "My son is sick and die, so I have to take bribes, that has no fear of God.

However, a religious person does not show the immorality such as fear God and do not forget that God knows his intentions and thoughts.

A person away from religion can say "I'm not religious, but I'm forgiving. I have no hatred or vengeance, but one day the unfortunate event can make him lose his composure and display unexpected behavior. He may try to kill or hurt someone, because morally it takes is that changes depending environmental conditions and where you live.

However, he who believes in God and in the future never deviates from his good character, regardless of the conditions or the environment maybe. Their morale is not "adjustable", but immutable. God refers to the moral superior of the religious in his verses:

Those who maintain faith in God and do not break their agreement, those who join what God has bidden to be united and who fear their Lord and fear the bad account's resignation, those who patiently persevere, seeking the face of his Lord, and attend regular prayer and give alms from what We have given them secretly and openly and repel evil with good, are they who come to the Dwelling Season. (Qur'an, 13: 20-22)

In a true religion, must be removed first concept is that of the family. Values such as loyalty, fidelity, loyalty, love and respect, which support the family, are totally abandoned. Remember that family is the foundation of society and whether the collapse of the family, the fact of society. Even the state has no reason to exist, since all moral values that underlie the state have been deleted.

In addition, in societies without religion, there is no reason for anyone to feel left of respect, love or compassion for someone else. This leads to anarchy society. The poor envy the rich, poor envy the rich. The anger is growing against those who are disabled or need. O stands aggression towards different nations. The workers become aggressive with their employers and employers towards their workers, fathers turn against his son and son against his father.

The reason why the blood continues and the "Third new page "in newspapers is irreligion. In these pages, every day we hear from people who recklessly kill each other for reasons very negligible.

However, a person who knows who will be responsible in the hereafter can not point a gun at someone's head and kill him. He knows that God has forbidden men to commit crimes, and his fear of God ensures that it will avoid divine punishment. In the Koran, God orders the public to guard against corruption:

Do not corrupt the earth after it has been purged of evil. Call him with fear and impatience. God's mercy is available to the righteous. (Qur'an, 7: 56)

The existence of the values of religion brings the love of God. This love has a very positive and encouraging to all people. To win the approval of God, believers are comforted in the most moral, and love and respect each other. In general, mercy, tolerance and compassion invade society.

Go fears God, the people involved in immoral acts strictly avoid or wrong. Thus, any kind of evil that formerly could not be reached to avoid an abrupt end. The spirit and warmth of religion permeates the air.

In societies where religion does not penetrate, is an accepted fact that people become rebels and anarchists and adopt a stand against their state. However, for those who live by the values of religion, the imperatives of the state are paramount. If necessary, we will risk their lives to these values. For such a person, the interests of his state's own interests will always prevail. They stand up for spiritual values and do everything possible to defend them.

Under such conditions, which determine the state becomes relatively simple. The country becomes a safe and prosperous. The administrators of the country to treat citizens with justice and compassion, and therefore stop unfair practices. In return, they are respected by the citizens. These states probably throw on the basis of a foundation unmoved.

In the absence of Islamic morality, the father becomes the enemy of the child, and vice versa, the brothers of disputes, employers oppress their employees. The factories and businesses to stop operations due to anarchy and labor exploitation from the rich to the poor. In business life, people try to cheat others. Disorder, conflict and anarchy become a way of life for members of society. The reason for this is that people are not afraid of God. Persons not have the fear of God, not hesitate to commit injustice and not hesitate to resort to extreme violence and cruelty, even murder. Moreover, without feeling a twinge of remorse, dare to express publicly his lack of repentance. On the contrary, is convinced he may face eternal punishment in hell never commit such acts. The moral of the Koran makes all these unfortunate events impossible. All is handled easily, quietly and in the best way. There are no miscarriages and, pending police stations and courts trouble finding a case to be treated.

The quiet and comfortable state of mind of people all walks of life brings prosperity to the whole society. Scientific research is increasing, almost no day passes without a new discovery or a technological breakthrough and the results used for the good of all. thriving culture and leaders to promote the public welfare. This success owes its existence to the human mind to be free of pressures. Once the mind is at peace, we develop a capacity to think better, and that spirit extends the field of reflection. The result is clear and unrestricted use of intelligence. Live by the rules of good moral character brings prosperity people are successful in their professional life and business. Agriculture and industry flourished. In all areas activity is real progress.

The solution is obvious: to turn to God, the Creator of all beings, and attain true happiness and peace through adherence the religion of God is for us. God has informed us that salvation in this world is turning to religion and given good news that his faithful servants will feel no fear, if they are obedient to him.

God has promised those among you who believe and do deeds of righteousness will be the masters on earth as it had made their ancestors before them, and firmly establish for them their religion which he is happy and give them instead of their fear, security. They worship Me, not associating anything. The they do not believe then they are evil. "(Quran 24: 55)

Therefore, for all the reasons given above, the French company should not seek a solution in the absence of religion, but in the practice of religious morality. The solution to the growing conflict, increasing violence and economic inequality does not lie in the banishment of religion, but rather the opposite: to look for in an effort to disseminate religious morality. When a nation fears God, acts according to its exhibitions conscience and compassion, mercy and tolerance, there is no doubt that easily uproot violence and degradation of your company.
