Religion can be an excuse for breaking every law.
We cant have that in a modern democracy.
So here are 4 basic requirements EVERY religion has to pass:
1. There can be no penelty for leaving the religion. (Certainly not death-penalty - ofc)
2. Infidels - all those non-followers - should be respected as equal citizens (Certainly not death-penalty - ofc)
3. Violence - as a mean of achieving the goals of the religion - can not be tolerated
4. The moral sanity of the religion should be worth recognizing

I like your list - those four points should be mandatory for any religious group in any open society.
