In Engelv. Vitale (1962), which of the following provides the legal reasoning behind the Supreme Court's ruling?

The correct answer is B. In Engel v. Vitale (1962), the Supreme Court ruled that the state had no justifiable interest to compel students to listen to a nondenominational prayer led by public school teachers, finding a clear establishment clause violation. The Court held that the practice of reciting a state-composed prayer in public schools violated the Establishment Clause of the First Amendment, which prohibits the government from establishing an official religion or promoting one religion over another.
