« The rise of religious references in the texts of the `European` Community, and then of the Union, has gone hand in hand with the dechristianisation of individuals. This is a sign that the public does not have the same leeway with respect to 'meta' as private individuals. The logic of collectives is one thing, the psychology of members is another. Limit of the liberal horizon: the sacrosaint if-I-want-and-when-I-want, which detangles, does not allow to reconnect. And even less to anticipate. »
