The minority transition of French Catholicism - 2025.


12

The ongoing secularization of French society is having adverse effects on Catholicism, which is now reshaping itself on a minority scale. After the phase of "internal secularization," we are now witnessing a phase of "de-secularization." This new Catholicism is marked by an attachment to ritual, an appreciation of the sacred, and rigorous morality.
