| | Edict of Nantes - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The main concern was civil unity, and the Edict separated civil from religious unity, treated some Protestants for the first time as more than mere schismatics and heretics, and opened a path for secularism and tolerance. | | | The Edict aimed primarily to end the long-running, disruptive French Wars of Religion. | | | In reality, the edict sustained Catholicism as the established religion of France: Protestants gained no exemption from paying the tithe and had to respect Catholic holidays and restrictions regarding marriage. |

| | The Edict Of Nantes |
| | That the Edict of Nantes was simply an edict of tolerance and nothing more can easily be shown in the sphere of religion wherein the official religion, that of the king as well as of the state was, as was also true of all of their predecessors, the Catholic, Apostolic and Roman Church. | | | Following this, we would like to conclude by inviting Monsieur Jean Delumeau, future president of the National Organization of the fourth Centennial of the Edict of Nantes, to meditate on the principles of a sound philosophy of law and theology which we have set forth in the light of the Church's Magisterium. | | | Protestantism was designated as being the Pretended (i.e., "so-called") Reformed Religion: in other words, it is officially denied the title of true or authentic religion—it calls itself Reformed, Jesus Christ's reformed religion which is simply an unjustified pretension-it is a so-called reformed religion. |

| | Indeed, the edict brought about the return of all property to the Roman Catholic Church that had been confiscated by the Protestants, especially in the south, and it re-established all over the kingdom the dense network of Catholic parishes. | | | The edict originally intended that ten Catholic and six Protestant judges should sit in the proposed chamber of the Parlement of Paris to adjudicate disputes involving both faiths. | | | It allowed the Huguenot communities a necessary respite, a period of time whose very uncertainty encouraged them to nurture deeply those religious values and traditions that permitted the Reformed Church’s survival through the years under the cross. |

| | This was called the edict of Nantes, and though far from removing all disabilities on account of religion, was received by the protestants with joy and gratitude. | | | We shall present an extract or two from the letters of the three last named victims of the revocation of the edict of Nantes, while suffering under the cruel inductions of the papal anti-Christ, to sustain this assertion. | | | This Pontiff wrote a splendid letter to king Louis, expressly thanking him in the warmest and most glowing terms for the service he had rendered the church in his persecuting edict against the heretics of France. |

| | The Edict of Nantes, signed by Henry IV in April, 1598, ended the Wars of Religion, and allowed the Huguenots some religious freedoms, including free exercise of their religion in 20 specified towns of France. | | | Nevertheless, Protestantism continued to spred and grow, and about 1555 the first Huguenot church was founded in a home in Paris based upon the teachings of John Calvin. | | | Followers of this new Protestantism were soon accused of heresy against the Catholic government and the established religion of France, and a General Edict urging extermination of these heretics (Huguenots) was issued in 1536. |

| | It is to Nantes glory to have associated its name with one of the most far reaching acts of religious tolerance in history. | | | Later, in second half of 17th century, the pogroms and persecutions renew against the common people. | | | Nevertheless, in spite of its weakness in the face of an absolutest monarchy, the Edict of Nantes remains unique in the history of continental Europe, and, perhaps, is only surpassed in the original protections, which were afforded to persons in the United States under the US Constitution. |

| | Although the idea of religious tolerance had been around since 1598, when the Edict of Nantes made it permissible for Protestant Christians to practise their religion, before 1789 the Roman Catholic Church was still a major part of the French system of government. | | | However, in order to better understand the importance of secularism or laïcité in France, it is necessary to trace the history of the relationship between the Church and the State, beginning at the time of the French Revolution. | | | Within the rigid social structure of the French Estates (known as the Ancien Régime), the clergy, or First Estate, wielded considerable power. |
