Any claim that the 14th amendment prevents municipalities from doing anything is not misinterpretation, it is a falsehood.

Could a municipality declare an official religion, mandate attendance at its services, levy tithes as taxes, outlaw other religions, burn down their buildings and jail its practicioners?

Just curious.

While declaring official religions for a municipality may be a bad idea, nothing in the US Constitution prevents it. If you check your history, you may find that different states had official religions even after the Constitution was ratified--but not after the 14th amendment was ratified.

As far as burning down the buildings and jailing the practitioners, you are getting into amendments 4 throught 9.
