Answer 2

Answer:

The correct answer to the question: In which circumstance would the U.S government most likely be able to constitutionally limit a citizen´s right to freedom of religion, would be C: When a major places passages from the Bible in prominent locations, around city hall.

Explanation:

The right to freedom of religion is one of the five elemental freedoms in the United States Constitution. Established in the First Amendment of the Constitution, basically, it prohibits the government from stating a particular religion as a state religion, and allowing for all citizens to be free to chose their own religion, or have no religion at all. It also separated state from religion. However, there are some instances in which, legally, the Constitution allows the government to interfere, and that is when someone´s right to freedom of religion, is infringing on the rights of others. The major papering the city hall, a state building, with religious texts, infringes on the rights of citizens who go to this building and either do not believe in the Bible, or are atheistic. In this instance, the government can step in and order the major to remove the papers. This is why the correct answer is C.
