Original Note:
The establishment clause prohibits Congress from passing laws which mandate a religion, or restricting religious exercise. But SCOTUS has upheld that restrictions on exercise are legal for the public good. "separation of church and state" does not exist in the 1st amendment. https://firstamendment.mtsu.edu/article/establishment-clause-separation-of-church-and-state/
