This feature has been labeled as deprecated. The recommended replacement is: place_of_worship=*.
The reason is documented in Deprecated features. You are still free to continue to use or interpret this tag as you see fit since OpenStreetMap does not have “banned features”.
Under no circumstances should you (semi-)automatically change “deprecated” tags to something else in the database on a large scale without conforming to the automated edits code of conduct. Any such change will be reverted.

This tag is sometimes used to document the type of a amenity=place_of_worship.
A better-used alternative is place_of_worship=*. For example: place_of_worship=lourdes_grotto for a Lourdes Grotto.
 | An alternative to this tag is place_of_worship=*. It is better documented and is used more often. Mappers may wish to consider migrating to that tag instead. |
