No that is false. It is an example of loose construction.
Absolutely not. The constitution contained no provision for expansion of the country and the Louisiana Purchase has always been historically seen as a case where Jefferson overstepped his powers as President. Jefferson himself was conscious of this and even considered seeking a constitutional amendment to grant hims the authority for the purchase, but he had to abandon it when it became clear that an amendment couldn't be ratified before Napoleon changed his mind about selling Louisiana. So the Louisiana Purchase is an example of an act which goes far beyond anything that could be considered "strict construction."
The Federalist Papers.
Anti-Federalists opposed the ratification of the new US Constitution. They believed it gave too much power to the national government at the expense of the states's power. They favored the addition of a Bill of Rights to the new document before they would approve it. After the Constitution was ratified, the beginnings of political parties were formed, with the Federalists favoring more power to the national government and the Anti-Federalists favoring states' rights.
If you meant "by the government", I'm guessing that they would interpret the acceptance as favoring Christianity, and the First Amendment to the U. S. Constitution prohibits the government from favoring one religion over another. (Of course it wouldn't be favoritism if they accepted the diplomas of every religious school, but try telling them that, and they would probably reply with something about the separation of church and state, which is NOT in the Constitution.)

New York had areas that were evenly divided between people favoring and opposing the ratification of the Constitution. The state's significant population and diverse interests led to a contentious debate, with prominent figures on both sides, including Federalists like Alexander Hamilton and Anti-Federalists like George Clinton. This division reflected the broader national tensions of the time regarding federal power and states' rights. Ultimately, New York ratified the Constitution but only after intense discussion and compromise.

Sectionalism is another word for favoring one section of the country over another
No, because the states have to go by the US Constitution and under Amendment I in the Bill of Rights, it says that the government cannot have a national religion, nor can the government favor one religion over another. In this case, it would be favoring one religion over another.
