Reading the text of the bill it technically can open up that and other cans of worms but it also doesn't.
"(2) Government may substantially burden a person's exercise of religion only if it demonstrates that application of the burden to that person's exercise of religion in that particular instance is both of the following:
(a) In furtherance of a compelling governmental interest.
(b) The least restrictive means of furthering that compelling governmental interest."
I honestly would not want to risk my or anyone elses life or well being on the question of "what is the government's interest?".
Edit: Collecting taxes is definitely with in government interest... no more religious tax exemptions?
