That gets past all the "RELIGIOUS FREEDOM" Bullshit. Require a license. A simple test to prove that you're capable of faith healing -- the government brings you someone who can't walk, and you fucking heal them. Or someone who is blind. If those people then start seeing or walking then congratulations! You just got your faith healing license. If they're still unable to walk or see, then fuck off.
I would make them heal several people before they get the license, but I agree with your basic point. I also think that "psychics" should also have to have a license before practicing, and that they, too, should have to prove they can do it before the license is issued. All who practice without a license should be punished for fraud (in addition to practicing without a license).
Since they are all frauds, no one would be issued a license.
