Answer to Question 1
An ideal response will:
1, Define religious freedom as the idea that individuals should be free to choose and practice their religious faith and that the government should not establish a preferred or official religion.
2, Discuss how In God We Trust might not violate this definition because it does not specify any religion and thus does not interfere with the practice or non-practice of a person's faith. Discuss how it might violate the definition just by mentioning God.
3, Explain how swearing on the Bible could be construed as violating this definition because it advances one particular religion, Christianity, over others, and thus government would need to allow officials the option to be sworn in on a different text so as not to violate the notion of freedom to practice one's religious faith.
4, Provide a clear and effective conclusion.
