Establishment of a religion

Establishment of a religion refers to the government’s endorsement, support, or promotion of a particular religion or religious activities. It involves legal measures or actions that favor one religion over others, such as funding religious schools, displaying religious symbols on public property, or endorsing specific religious practices. The principle is often addressed in constitutional law to prevent government from establishing an official religion or discriminating against others based on faith. In the United States, the First Amendment prohibits the government from establishing an official religion, ensuring religious freedom and preventing government endorsement of religion.
