Which quotation best explains why the establishment clause was included in the 1st Amendment?

“Human wisdom cannot devise a method of obtaining petit jurors more fairly . . . than that . . . by our provincial law.”





“[T]he subjecting of men to punishment for things which . . . were no breaches of law, and the practice of arbitrary imprisonments, have been . . . the favorite and most formidable instruments of tyranny.”

“The genius of Republican liberty, seems to demand on one side . . . that all power should be derived from the people. . . .”



“[M]erit will be doubled by the other lesson that Religion flourishes in greater purity, without than with the aid of Govt.”
