Personal opinion. NNN. Tax exemptions for religious institutions aren't a constitutional right. They're a provision of US tax code. https://web.archive.org/web/20221209004213/https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/in-theory/wp/2015/09/14/primer-tax-exemptions-for-religious-institutions/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/501(c)(3)_organization SCOTUS rejected constitutional challenges arguing that denying such tax exemptions violates the Establishment Clause of the 1st Amendment. https://www.law.cornell.edu/constitution-conan/amendment-1/denying-financial-assistance-to-religion
