Question
the establishment clause would prevent
○ a church from being built in a jewish area
○ the mayors office from displaying a cross
○ a citizen from placing a religious scene in a business
○ the president from having a christmas party at home
The establishment clause of the First Amendment in the U.S. Constitution prohibits the government from establishing a religion. Displaying a cross in the mayor's office is a government - related action that could be seen as an establishment of religion. A church being built in a Jewish area is a private religious activity, a citizen placing a religious scene in a business is a private action, and the president having a Christmas party at home is a personal activity.
