Which term describes voltaire’s ideas about religion? a. agnosticism b. secularism c. catholicism d. atheism

The correct option is B

Voltaire has gone down in history by coining the concept of religious tolerance. He was a tireless fighter against intolerance and superstition and always defended the peaceful coexistence between people of different beliefs and religions.

Voltaire criticized numerous times the pretension of the Jewish people to be the chosen people by God and echoed the usual prejudices of the time against the Jews. This critical attitude, which has led some to call him anti-Semitic or anti-Jewish, is part of the general hostility of the author against religion, which led him to attack Christians and Muslims with the same zeal, which is why many historians consider Voltaire antireligious in general, rather than anti-Semitic or anti-Christian, but not for that reason it should be considered intolerant to religions, since it may not accept religious dogmas, and yet tolerate them.It must also be borne in mind that Voltaire was a Mason and admirer of the cabal, which his criticisms could be due to personal disputes rather than a religious rejection of the Jews.
