Was the French revolution evil?

[minkymurph]

It was unfortunate if the King just sided with the Peoples Congress and against the Clergy and the Nobles there would never have been a Revolution it was simple the common people wanted the Church and Nobles to pay their fair share of taxes and lose privileges they held to some degree. It was a fair thing.

I’m an American but our Revolution wasn’t justified after England fought with the colonies a war adding a lot of land and resources benefitting the colonies they expected us through taxes to pay the costs of the war in part, with new trade bolstering the revenues. Also fair to ask a colonial interest to do and we were largely treated well as a set of colonies.

I am a bit bemused.

There is no doubt that during the French revolution the church was persecuted. Let’s not pretend evolutionary’s were completely innocent,but let’s not pretend the French revolution came from nothing.

The question the OP asked was, was the French revolution evil? Certain aspects yes, but all aspects? NO.
