As far as the United States are concerned, you'd probably have to amend the Constitution.

The First Amendment guarantees the right to worship whoever you like. Therefore, you'd need a motion to pass through Congress with a two-thirds majority in each house asking the Constitution be changed.

But there's no chance that'll happen anytime soon, as religious freedom is considered in Western society as a fundamental right.

A:

A government would, andshould, restrict religious practices when they harm others or break laws in place to protect moral codes that society regards as desirable. A cult would not be permitted to perform human sacrifices on religious grounds. Polygamy is also prohibited in most countries.

Where there is insufficient separation between religion and state, some governments may restrict the practices of minority religions. For example, church bells have been disallowed in some Middle Eastern countries.

The government is only supposed to restrict religious practices when it violate someone else's rights. Otherwise, people are free to worship as they please.
