The Establishment Clause, included in the First Amendment to the US Constitution, aims to guarantee the right of freedom of religion. It prohibits the goverment to choose or favour any religion over another,

It contains the Free Exercise Clause which enables individual citizens to be protected from possible goverment interventions related with private and public religious manifestations or affairs.
