Talk:1905 French law on the Separation of the Churches and the State

message: In the Politics section, in the following sentence:
:representing layment, instead of putting them directly under the supervision of the church hierarchy.
is "layment" supposed to be "laymen" (i.e. lay people)?

message: I'd guess that it is a translation issue, but the phrase 
:when he was still Minister of Interior (and therefore also in charge of the cults) 
reads rather oddly. -- Solipsist (talk) 12:53, 1 January 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Basically, the words "cult" and "sect" are reversed between French and English, regarding which one is relatively neutral and which one has strong negative connotations... AnonMoos (talk) 02:15, 2 January 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Cults?

message: The last sentence of the "Effects" section, a quote from the referenced book, is neither neutral nor verifiable. Rather, it is prescriptive conclusion from a specific point of view. It seems to contradict several points from the "Politics" section, notably the 'freedom' in the second and third  paragraphs (free from government influence when choosing bishops, freedom of fundraising, cultural freedom) and the 'support' point in the fourth (effective state subsidization of long-established religious organizations).
Should this last sentence (crippling of religion in public life) be deleted (simplest action); balanced with an alternative POV (please find one!); or moved to a "Criticism" or "Controvery" section, to make it clearer than the reference reflects one, specific POV?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by PeterWhittaker (talk • contribs) 13:38, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

message: This article has long stretches of statements without referencing, but is otherwise well-written and clear. I am planning to add citations to both the sources already mentioned here as well as some additional sources. If anyone has any suggestions I would be happy to hear them. I will have a copy of this page on my Sandbox while I am working with it, and you can leave me messages on that talk page as well.VaDawn (talk) 18:55, 21 July 2016 (UTC)
