As long as tax rates were equitable across different faiths, I don't see a constitutional problem. And of course, tax deductions could still be in place for legitimate charitable work (serving food in a soup kitchen, yes; ministering to "change" gay people, no).
Of course, one unintended consequence would be that churches, etc. would pass those costs down to members by charging official dues, but it might be worth it anyway.
This is just a think piece, so I humbly ask for no abusive invective in response.
