Freedom of religion may be limited in the situation described in option **D**: "A person breaks a policy of their employer to participate in a religious ceremony."
In this scenario, if an employee violates a workplace policy in order to attend a religious ceremony, the employer may take action due to the breach of policy. While individuals have the right to practice their religion, employers also have legitimate interests in maintaining workplace policies and ensuring operational effectiveness. In such cases, the balance between individual religious rights and adherence to workplace policies may lead to limitations on the expression of that freedom.
