Due process and...damn, I always have problems with the eighth and sixth, I get them confused bail or jury? Either way, I think it goes against both. Come to think about it, the concept would be against the fifth in most cases (double jeopardy) and definitely the first amendment.
The full list of violated amendments: 1, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 14; maybe more?
8 prohibits cruel or unusual punishment. 5th definitely The 6th is interesting, you are right. The 6th sets forth the right to an impartial jury. Hmmm. How would that work in a religious context?
8 also prohibits excessive bail, I just looked it up now that I'm home. The part of the sixth I was referring to was this: "the accused shall enjoy the right to a speedy and public trial, by an impartial jury of the State and district wherein the crime shall have been committed" Emphasis added to the important parts. Since the trial must be public and any sentencing is obviously done by a particular deity away from public observation (no religious person has ever stepped forward claiming to have seen their deity of choice sentencing someone) then it clearly violates both of these phrases in 6.
Well, since clearly hell plays itself with our Constitution we should be able to revoke tax exempt status from any organization that promotes it via the 16th Amendment which allows for tax collection even for criminal enterprises.

Of course, there's also the whole thing about their influence of voting clearly violating their 501(c)3 status (most hold that particular status).
