So if my "church" decided to make pot "sacred" and smoke it at every "church gathering" that's OKAY??? Ridiculous.
Does this set a precident for claiming the right to illegal drug use as part of a religious ritual?

No, it has to be a "legitimate and historical religious practice." This is not new; as above, American Indians have been using Peyote for years under this.

No. But if your church services have involved pot smoking for the last hundred years or longer, then it would probably be constitutionally protected.
