It was by becoming a Catholic that I pacified the Vendée [region in western France], and a [Muslim] that I established myself in Egypt; it was by becoming ultramontane that I won over public opinion in Italy. If I ruled a people of Jews, I would rebuild the temple of Solomon! Paradise is a central spot whither the souls of men proceed along different roads; every sect has a road of its own. Read this passage from Napoleon’s diary about religion. Based on this passage, which statement best sums up how Napoleon viewed religion in the French empire? Catholicism should be the official religion of France. All people should have the right to choose how to worship. The people of France must choose whether they want to be Catholic, Muslim, or Jewish. People in France are assured of going to Paradise.

The correct answer is that all people should have the right to choose how to worship. Napoleon had worshiped several different religions to help him in his conquering endeavors. He believes that in any religion, at the heart of it, is the belief that once you die, you will reach a heaven or paradise. He believes that as long as you have religion and faith, that we will all find peace at the end.
