Abstract
In the last century, religion was discarded from participation in public life. It was believed that churches had already finished their historical role and thusthe dominant position in European society was to be undertaken by the state institutions. Churches were actually kept within limits that made them“harmless” in the sphere of public life. Religion was supposed to assume a strictly private role, not to be any longer a public affair. In the last century’sbattle between state and church, the state was believed victorious. This paper attempts to clarify the position and the role of religion in European society as ithas been changing since the breaking of the communist regime.
