Best Answer

The main religion in France, includingits capital Paris, is Roman Catholicism.

The French government doesn't keep statistics on race or religion, (they are in fact forbidden) but it is estimated that around 65% of French people describe themselves as Roman Catholic, although only around 10% of these attend church.

Muslims make up between 7 to 10% of the population, Protestantism and Judaism make up to 1% each.

The remainder is made up of people describing themselves as atheists, or non-religious.

I have a kid in my class who is from Paris He is Jewish. He says that there are alot of Arabs there; so Islam is practiced there also.

Answer:

Assuming that the Demographics of Paris are similar to those of France, the CIA World Factbook indicates that the religious adherents are:

  • Roman Catholic 83%-88%
  • Protestant 2%
  • Jewish 1%
  • Muslim 5%-10%
  • Unaffiliated 4%

Added to this is the fact that Paris is one of the most cosmopolitan cities on Earth and it is a safe assumption that almost every religion has some adherents including, Buddhists, Jains, pagans, Hindus, pagans and Jedi.

The main religions of France are: Roman Catholic 85%, Muslim 10%, Protestant 2%, and Jewish 1%.

If agnosticism (non-believers) were a religion, it would be the second one.

There are no official statistics for religion practice and race origins in France; these figures are the result of the 2011 annual survey commissioned by a Catholic magasine. What_are_the_main_religions_of_France

What are the major religions in France?

The major religion in France is Catholic.... Here is where i found my information. France has traditionally been a catholic country and today approximately 80% of the population of France ascribe, at least nominally, to the Catholic religion. In reality, however, France is a deeply secular country which seen the role of organized religion in the lives of people in France diminish ever since the revolutions in in1780 and 1804. Many French people who are counted as belonging to the Catholic religion have not been. The vast majority of Catholics in France do not attend church regularly or even at all. The Catholic Church in France is viewed as quite progressive and keeping in step with the changes that living in modern society brings. The former Archbishop of Paris since 1981, Jean Marie Lustiger, was born to Jewish parents in Paris in 1926 and converted to the Catholic religion at the age of 14.
