Question 18 • Civics and Government

Which example violates the free-exercise Clause?

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

Explanation

The Free Exercise Clause protects people and groups from government restrictions on religious practice. Stopping a religious group from buying a building because of its faith targets that group’s religion, so it violates the clause. The other examples either allow religious expression or prevent religious activity from being imposed in public schools.
