Which law would be considered unconstitutional on the basis of First Amendment guarantees?
A) A ban on the publication of classified information by government employees
B) A requirement that church employees pay income tax
C) A requirement that churches get a permit before building a new chapel
D) A prohibition on electing religious leaders to government office

Respuesta :

The correct answer is D.  

It would be unconstitutional any law that prohibits any religious leader on electing to government office. This is because the First Amendment protects the right to freedom of expression from government interference, and a candidate needs this freedom to say publicly what his or her goals are for a determined election. Furthermore, it would interfere with the right to peaceable assemble that the citizens would need to vote for a religious leader.  



Letter C is the correct option. On the basis of First Amendment, the  requirement that churches get a permit before building a new chapel is considered unconstitutional. The U.S Constititution declares freedom concerning religion; Congress cannot pass any law that regards the establishment of religion or that bans its free exercise.
