Annotation: The purpose of the study is to consider the place of religiosity and faith in the self-consciousness of modern Russian society, in Russian constitutionalism and state science. Religiosity is proposed to be distinguished as a spiritual tradition, as a ritual and as a social value. As a spiritual tradition, religiosity has shaped Russian culture and the Russian way of life of multinational Russian society for centuries. As a ritual, religiosity acts as the outer shell of spiritual tradition, but sometimes it is detached from sincere faith. Religious fanaticism, especially extremism, testifies not to the depth of faith, but to sinful intolerance. However, human life is hardly possible without rituals. Religiosity is a social value, since it is the basis of archetypes, the basis of traditional morality and culture. As a social value, it is also important because it requires overcoming the individualistic ailments of the human spirit, starting with such a sin of the mind as pride. In the text of the article, the Russian Federation is abbreviated as RF.
