Read the excerpt from Ronald Reagan's Address at Moscow State University.
Freedom, it has been said, makes people selfish and materialistic, but Americans are one of the most religious peoples on Earth. Because they know that liberty, just as life itself, is not earned but a gift from God, they seek to share that gift with the world. "Reason and experience," said George Washington in his farewell address, "both forbid us to expect that national morality can prevail in exclusion of religious principle. And it is substantially true, that virtue or morality is a necessary spring of popular government."
Select 3 options.

C.used by Reagan to acknowledge an opposing view.
E.followed by a counterargument proving Reagan's point.
Explanation:
While addressing at Moscow State University, Ronald Reagan made use of procatalepsis where he is objecting to a commonly held belief. ‘Freedom, it has been said, makes people selfish and materialistic, but Americans are one of the most religious peoples on Earth’ here, ‘but’ indicates that the sentence is an example of procatalepsis.
Apart from this, Ronald is also acknowledging an opposing view by stating why Americans are the most religious people. Ronald also included George Washington’s counterargument for proving his point.

Explanation:
The Religious Freedom Restoration Act of 1993 was passed in light of the Supreme Court upholding an Oregon state decision to deny two American Indian men unemployment benefits for having taken a banned substance which they normally use in their religious events.
Congress passed this bill with only 3 Senators opposing it so that it could prevent such from happening again.
The Supreme Court however ruled the Act as unconstitutional as it claimed that Congress was overexerting its powers by: changing the meaning of the First Amendment, creating a law that was disproportionate to the problems it was fixing and overexerting federal power on states and taking away their rights to manage their affairs in this regard.
