## Resource

The First Amendment’s guarantee of religious freedom isn’t just a legal footnote—it’s the bedrock of American democracy, rooted in the founders’ belief that liberty thrives when people are free to worship as they choose. From inspiring charitable acts to fueling moral movements like abolition and civil rights, religion has shaped the nation’s conscience. The founders, deeply religious themselves, designed the Constitution to work for a moral people, trusting religious institutions to uphold the values that keep society honest, just, and free.
