One theme in this module is the perceived tension between free exercise of religion (guaranteed under the 1st amendment to the Constitution) and equal protection under the law (guaranteed by the 14th amendment to the U.S. Constitution).
Excerpt from 1st Amendment to the U.S. Constitution
“Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of
religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging
the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people
peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress
of grievances.”
Excerpt from Section 1 of the 14th Amendment to the U.S.
Constitution
“No state shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the
privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor
shall any state deprive any person of life, liberty, or property,
without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its
jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.”
In short, which is more at risk: freedom of religion OR equality of all people under the law? Explain your answer.

example, if your favorite instrument is guitar, you may choose Eric
