Which amendment to the United States Constitution guarantees the right to freedom of religion?

  1. First Amendment.

  2. Second Amendment.

  3. Fourth Amendment.

  4. Eighth Amendment.

The correct answer is: First Amendment.

The First Amendment guarantees the right to freedom of religion, speech, press, assembly, and to petition the government for grievances. The Second Amendment guarantees the right to bear arms. The Fourth Amendment protects against unreasonable searches and seizures. The Eighth Amendment protects against cruel and unusual punishment. None of these amendments specifically address the right to freedom of religion, making them incorrect choices.
