Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof

If they can't respect a church, then there's no respecting one more than another.

Tax-free status for churches seems like respect to me, but what do I know?

It's not respect as in "to pay respect to." It's respect as in "with respect to," ie. "relating to."

No law in respect to religion. Why wouldn’t they be exempt? Otherwise the govt would be collecting money from a religion
