A. Allowing a private company to run weekly prayer sessions - This is a private company's choice and does not violate the Free Exercise Clause - Private entities have more flexibility in religious practices B. Allowing a student to wear religious clothing - This is a protected right under the Free Exercise Clause - Students are allowed to express their religious identity through clothing C. Stopping a religious group from forcing students to pray in public school - This does NOT violate the Free Exercise Clause - Public schools cannot mandate prayer, as this would violate the Establishment Clause - Students cannot be compelled to participate in religious activities D. Stopping a religious group from buying a building based on their faith - This WOULD violate the Free Exercise Clause - Preventing a religious group from purchasing property solely because of their religious beliefs is religious discrimination - This is a clear violation of religious freedom protections
