Answer 2

The correct answer would be D) The posting would not be in violation of the clause because people willingly go to the historical society.

The establishment clause states that the government cannot establish an official religion in which all citizens are expected to follow. This is why posting would not be in violation of the establishment clause.

In this case, the government is not forcing religion on anyone or telling them to convert. Rather, they are posting a document that is relevant to their history. Along with this, the museum is not a public institution which people are required to go to (like school). This is completely voluntary.
