I fall on the side of, "If it ain't a church, it doesn't get a church's special treatment."
If it is not generating a profit, than the only purpose of its existence is to fulfill a religious, charitable mission. In those cases, I would say exempt that. If non-religious people don't like the terms, they don't have to take the job. If no one is taking the jobs, then the churches will realize they have to change things. Otherwise, then you get people who are ok with the terms. That would seem to me to make the most sense.
