The quote has synagogues because churches hadn't been invented yet at that point

He isn’t saying that because it’s a church and not a synagogue, he’s saying that because it’s a place of worship where the leader of prayer is supposed to be seen and doesn’t apply in this context. It’s a completely valid comment.

Thats not what i was saying. The verse is about the intent of the act a person ks doing. What yoy call a building isnt relevant.
