yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

The First Amendment contains the views of Voltaire about freedom of worship.

Explanation:

The Preamble to the US Constitution was the guiding idea that leads the nation. It contains the proclamation of the citizens in their desire to help build the nation and keep it safe.

Voltaire was a philosopher who believed in the freedom of religion for everyone, regardless of caste and creed. Moreover, he also greatly supported the idea of separating religion and politics. This was why he greatly proposed and emphasized the need for religious belief in all nations.

The First Amendment states-

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof, or abridging the freedom of speech or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

Therefore, the First Amendment to the US Constitution contains Voltaire's views on the freedom of worship.
