The 1st Amendment is Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances. Therefore questioning a religion would go against freedom of speech or free exercise of religion.

this has brought up a lot of controversy but we have freedom of religion but we cannot express it in public schools.
