The right that is protected by the first amendment is the right to freely practice any religion: therefore, the correct answer is B

The first amendment to the US constitution stops the government from enacting any law which controls the creation of religion, preventing the free exercise of religion. The amendment also further prevents the government from making laws that will abridge or truncate the freedom of the press, the freedom of speech and the right to assemble peacefully in protest of government action.

The first amendment to the United States Constitution was adopted in December 1971 and it was part of the ten amendments that make up the bill of rights.

However, the bill of rights is a document that protects the rights of the people under the United States law.

In 1787, some political class, which also includes Alexandra Hamilton and James Madison, assembled to propose a new constitution of the United States.

The anti-federalist, led by Patrick Henry were against the ratification of the constitution, the anti-federalists opposed the ratification because they believed the federal government will be too powerful and this would be detriment of the states

The debate among the federalists and the anti-federalist as to either ratify the constitution or not brought about the passage of the Bill of right to adequately protect the rights of the people
