Religion and Education “Released time” programs allow public school students to attend religious classes/programs Engale v.

Clauses (Establishment & Expression) Prayer is allowed in legislative houses (Marsh v. Chambers) ruled history of prayer stretches to colonial times and legislatures are not as “susceptible to religious doctrine as students” Free exercise clause allows people to believe (or not believe) whatever they want to in matters of religion Does not give anyone the right to violate the law (Reynolds v. United States) “Only beliefs rooted in religion are protected by the free exercise clause” Reynolds held even though Mormons say you can have multiple wives, civil law forbade it.
