Culte de la Raison
Culte de la Raison ("Kultus Akal", bahasa Inggeris: Cult of Reason) merupakan suatu pergerakan yang bertindak sebagai suatu agama rasmi menggantikan Gereja Roman Katolik setelah berlakunya Revolusi Perancis yang menggulingkan pemerintahan raja sebagai ketua agama. Pergerakan ini menumpukan kepada fahaman terhadap akal, kebebasan, sifat semula jadi serta kemenangan Revolusi.[1]
Ia digantikan dengan suatu pergerakan baharu diberi nama Culte de l'Être suprême ("Kultus Maha Agung") setahun kemudian dengan sokongan Maximilien de Robespierre, seorang tokoh penting dalam Revolusi Perancis.[2][3][4][5]
