Currently, the Supreme Court imposes a three-pronged test to determine when public policy constitutes "establishment" of religion.
A policy is constitutional if:
- It has a secular purpose;
- Its primary effect neither advances nor inhibits religion; and
- It does not foster excessive entanglement with religion.
