Freedom from Religion

In this lab, we read the articles on the court dispute between Locke and Davey.

The First Amendment states that "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion or prohibiting the free exercise therof." This means that the government cannot support a religion, or prefer one religion to another or irreligion. The First Amendment basically creates a wall of separation between church and state. Because of this we strongly agree with Locke, and think that Davey should not be awarded that scholarship.
