That’s... not even remotely what the separation of church and state means.
Sure as hell does. The first amendment to the US Constitution states "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof." A church choosing to remain closed for reasons of public safety is "the free exercise thereof."

They’re overriding the state, not the church, no? The churchgoers can feel free to stay home if they like.

"...or prohibiting the free exercise thereof". I guess we're just going to forget that part, right.

The freedom to exercise religion stops at the point in which it infringes on the health of others. at some point you either acknowledge the severity of the virus in terms of its capacity to spread rapidly and impact others outside of the church or you don’t.
