It was an excellent question that all leftwingers/BLM avoid. Thousands of protests allowed to happen, yet people arent allowed to go to church, which, as you point out, is a controlled environment and can implement social distancing rules, just like any other place allowed to operate like stores.
Apparently you don't live in the real world. Churches insisted on operating "as usual" with people sitting shoulder to shoulder, not wearing masks, and singing and praying in close proximity. Not to mention passing the plate from person to person .
No social distancing, no avoiding common surfaces, none of the guidelines being followed. And we already saw the results.
