The "Supreme Being" in the French Revolution was not necessarily the Abrahamic God. One major cause of the revolution was the Church's corruption and overreach during the ancien regime, and they got pretty radical with religious experimentation during that time. They even tried to set up a state-sponsored "cult of reason" to replace religions like Christianity. That was followed by the "cult of the supreme being", because not many people felt comfortable worshipping an abstract reification of "rationality". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cult_of_Reason https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cult_of_Reason https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cult_of_the_Supreme_Being https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cult_of_the_Supreme_Being
