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 to the United States Constitution guarantees the right to freedom of religion. The Second Amendment protects the right to bear arms, the Fourth Amendment protects against unreasonable searches and seizures, and the Eighth Amendment prohibits cruel and unusual punishment. Therefore, options B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not relate to the right to freedom of religion, which is guaranteed by the First Amendment.
