According to Yves Le Sidaner, president of the Education League, “we too often see misunderstandings about secularism: it would be an attack on freedom of religion, it would be a means of combating beliefs”. On the occasion of December 9, the anniversary of the promulgation of the 1905 law concerning the separation of Churches and State and as it approaches its centenary (1905-1925), the Teaching League is organizing numerous events such as round tables, training, workshops, shows to reflect on a founding principle of the Republic: secularism.
Training, shows and debate
On November 14, the month of secularism has already started with training in the department, aimed at a very diverse audience: teachers from National Education, CFA staff, the Local Mission, employees and volunteers from the associative world. . Three highlights will soon be offered to the general public: on December 11, a show entitled “In the footsteps of Marianne” at the La Puce à l'Oreille social center in Saint-Brieuc (6 p.m.). Two clowns, Bombyx and Luna, lead a police investigation in search of Marianne, which addresses the notions of republic and secularism (registration at 02 96 78 32 91). On December 13, at the Tremplin social center in Ploufragan, the cinema “Le chat du rabbin” will be presented at 6:30 p.m. (registration on 02 96 01 52 10) and to close this month, on Thursday December 19, a round table and a debate on secularism, 1905-2025, will be offered at the amphitheater of the Ernest-Renan high school in Saint-Brieuc, in the company by Alain Seksig and Philippe Portier, specialists in secularism.
