The statement "It determined that the Establishment Clause was not violated if funding was used for secular purposes" best analyzes how Lemon v. Kurtzman clarified the meaning of the First Amendment. This case introduced the Lemon test, which established a three-pronged criteria to determine whether government action regarding religion violates the Establishment Clause.
