B. To stop the government from supporting one religion
C. To give the government power to choose a state religion
D. To stop citizens from practicing religion in public
The correct answer is B. To stop the government from supporting one religion.

This clause ensures a separation between church and state, allowing for religious freedom and preventing governmental endorsement of any particular faith.
