Freedom of Religion Hello there children!

First Amendment “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof…”

The Establishment Clause Forbids the govt. from setting up a state religion. Also prevents govt. from supporting or endorsing one religion.

Free Exercise Clause Protects the rights of the individuals to worship or believe as they choose

Mr. Mason, even Osama Bin Laden?

Yes Eric, even Osama Bin Laden, if he was a U.S. Citizen could freely practice his religion.

The Endorsement Test Asks whether the law or action has either the purpose or effect of endorsing one religion over another in peoples eyes.

The Free Exercise Clause It is the BELIEF that is protected, not necessarily the ACTION. Polygamy- No Animal sacrifice- Yes Smoke peyote- No

What a totally sweet PowerPoint Mr. Mason!
