The key here is whether a state may deny religious institutions or instruction from competing for state money that follows the student, if it so chooses. Can a state deny a black institution from competing for state money.....so it's OK to discriminate against religion but not skin color?

No. Racial distinctions are an invidious suspect class. You may wish that the same obtained to the secular vis a vis the religious, but that dog won't hunt in the elite legal community, and is dead per SCOTUS precedent, and I don't think is going to achieve animination now.
