Bronx Household of Faith Redux?

In a message dated 03/14/2000 5:15:51 PM Eastern Standard Time,
Marty.Lederman at USDOJ.GOV writes:

<< because in general it is impermissible for the government to be in the
business of determining whether religious services and instruction do, or do
not, "pertain to the welfare of the public" -- and, if so, *which* religious
services and teachings satisfy this standard.  >>

If Marty is correct in the above-quoted point, it seems to me that a policy
relying on a standard of that sort would unconstitutionally discriminate
against religion; that is, unless someone can identify for me a few more
categories of discussion or topicality that would prompt an analogous
restriction on government invovlement.
