Our country’s founders, who were of different religious backgrounds themselves, knew the best way to protect religious liberty was to keep the government out of religion. So they created the First Amendment, to guarantee the seperation of church and state. This fundamental freedom is a major reason why the U.S. has managed to avoid a lot of religious conflicts that have torn so many other nations apart.

The First Amendment has two provisions concerning religion: The Establishment Clause and the Free Exercise Clause. The Establishment Clause prohibits the government from “establishing” a religion. The precise definition of establishment is unclear. Historically, it meant prohibiting state-sponsored churches, such as the Church of England. The Free Exercise Clause protects citizens’ right to practice their religion as they please, so long as the practice does not run afoul of a “public morals” or a “compelling” government interest.
