The free exercise clause in the First Amendment prohibits the government from restricting religious beliefs and practices, although exceptions have been made in situations in which ceremonial practices threaten an individual’s safety or welfare. The establishment clause of the First Amendment has been interpreted as calling for separation of church and state.

I'm pretty sure is voting. I think it's voting because at the time the constitution was passed women did not have the right to vote.

Good Enough explanation?
