Question 16 • 670401 American Studies S1 – MYERS, JOSHUA A

Which example violates the free-exercise Clause?

Answer
a
allowing a private company to run weekly prayer sessions
a
allowing a student to wear religious clothing
s
stopping a religious group from forcing students to pray in public school
s
stopping a religious group from buying a building based on their faith

Explanation

The Free Exercise Clause protects people and religious groups from government restrictions on practicing their religion. Stopping a religious group from buying a building because of its faith burdens religious practice and treats the group unequally, so choice D violates the clause. The other choices either allow religious expression or prevent coercion in public schools.
