Question

BlackTom AI · Accepted Answer

When evaluating Lemon v. Kurtzman (1971), we assess how government action interacts with religion under the Establishment Clause. 
Option 1 analyzes government support of religion through a standard that requires secular purpose, neutrality toward religion (neither promotes nor inhibits), and avoidance of excessive entanglement. This framing aligns with the Lemon test’s core components, later refined by subsequent cases, which require a secular purpose, no endorsement or disapproval of religion, and minimal entanglement. 
Option 2 claims permissible support only if it promotes religious organizations with many members. This introduces a purpose-based favoritism and endorsement effect, which would constitute establishment or excessive entanglement, and thus is inconsistent with the neutral stance required by Lemon. 
Option 3 asserts permissibility only if it promotes religious organizations with few members. The size of the membership is not the controlling factor in Lemon; what matters is secular purpose, neutrality, and non-entanglement, so this option misstates the governing principle. 
Option 4 states that government support is never permissible. This is overly absolute and ignores the nuanced, secular-purpose/neutrality/entanglement framework that allows certain forms of aid under Lemon, provided the three prongs are satisfied. 
In summary, the core idea in Lemon is that government action can be compatible with religion only when it is secular in purpose, remains neutral toward religion, and does not become entangled with religious institutions or activities; deviations from these criteria render government aid unconstitutional.
