So what?
And it was initially built because of a religion, but I will suggest it still exists for reasons well beyond that now and even atheist/all others appreciate its place in history and as such claim community ownership as much as anyone else.
Its a huge part of the Parisian identity much like the Eiffel Tower, the Champs-Elysées, and the Louvre. Regardless of who originally financed it.
