I've fulfilled my BOP which is to explain why i think this is most likely. If you want to deny me, you inherit a BOP to explain why you think im wrong.

There is no mention of "church" in there, which renders your "point", dull as it is, irrelevant. The Amendment is clearly aimed at "religion" and not "church", meaning that it applies to all faiths, and not just your own particular brand of dementia.
You've pinned your argument to a word which doesn't appear in the Constitution. If I were you, I'm plan my reasoning better the next time I posted. Answering your objection was childishly simple.
You'll simply have to do better.
