The united states constitution forbids "an establishment of religion." which of the following can be deduced from this? a. a variety of religious beliefs were to be allowed. b. the founding fathers had no religious beliefs. c. churches could only be built by the government. d. christianity was the favored american religion.

The correct answer is option A

Explanation:

The statement The United States Constitution forbids "an establishment of religion." reflects that the government cannot question any religious establishment and neither is it liable of constituting any. It focuses on religious freedom. No religious establishment must be answerable to the government and the government cannot intervene in the religious affairs.

Therefore the answer to the above question is option A. A variety of religious beliefs were to be allowed.

question - in 1827, john walker, a druggist in a small english town, tipped a splint with sulphur, chlorate of potash, and sulphid of antimony, and rubbed it on sandpaper, and it burst into flame. the druggist had discovered the first friction-chemical match, the kind we use to-day. it is called friction-chemical because it is made by mixing certain chemicals together and rubbing them. although walker's match did not require the bottle of acid, nevertheless it was not a good one. it could be lighted only by hard rubbing, and it sputtered and threw fire in all directions. in a few years, however, phosphorus was substituted on the tip for antimony, and the change worked wonders. the match could now be lighted with very little rubbing, and it was no longer necessary to have sandpaper upon which to rub it. it would ignite when rubbed on any dry surface, and there was no longer any sputtering. this was the phosphorus match, the match with which we are so familiar. according the paragraph what was the benefit of the new phosphorus match? it burst into flame when rubbed on sandpaper. it was made by mixing chemicals. it could be ignited on any dry surface. it threw fire in all directions.

answer - matches required natural chemicals
