Which of the following violates the establishment clause: (A) If the Arkansas legislature prevented non-Christian groups from putting statues at the state capital. (B) If Coach Coachy of Maumelle high school forced his students to pray in a public school. (C) If the United States ever became the Islamic United States of America. (D) All of the above violate the establishment clause

The answer here is not just a mere choice, but an interesting dive into constitutional law! Each of the scenarios you mentioned presents a unique perspective on how the establishment clause could be interpreted. For instance, preventing non-Christian groups from placing statues would clearly favor one religion over another, conflicting with the spirit of separating church and state. On the other hand, the hypothetical of Coach Coachy enforcing prayer in a public school takes us back to landmark cases like Engel v. Vitale, where the Supreme Court ruled that government-directed prayer in schools violates this very clause. It's a wild ride through the Constitution!
