The first amendment guarantees certain rights so that people cannot be discriminated against based on their religion, what they say, assembling, etc., so it's A) to guarantee basic civil liberties.
A, because the first amendment is, Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof: or abridging the freedom of speech , or the press; or the right of the people peacefully to assemble and to petition the government for a redress or grievances. It doesn't say anything about prosecution -b, it doesn't say anything about race just religion -c, and it doesn't say anything about taxes -d.
so the answer is A
