I removed it on several Wiki pages, including the Map Features template.
I still have the impression that it's something a very few mappers use.
> The usage numbers might look big, but if you take a closer look especially at Poland it's done by 1 mapper. If that impression is based on the google query you had posted on 31/07/2014, this is no wonder. Your query contained the username. Like querying for red cars and getting that 100% cars are red. I see heavy use in Ireland, UK, and Japan, and there was a fellow from Japan in this discussion much in favour: http://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/tags/?key=landuse&value=religious#map
And I don't get the impression that he is very interested in a discussion: https://translate.google.com/translate?sl=auto&tl=en&js=y&prev=_t&hl=de&ie=UTF-8&u=http%3A%2F%2Fforum.openstreetmap.org%2Fviewtopic.php%3Fpid%3D441416&edit-text=&act=url
Maybe he speaks only Polish?
Especially the sacred_ground thing confuses me, maybe it's also just the translation.
I see him mention the term, but not as a proposal for a landuse tag, and it is not used: http://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/tags/?key=landuse&value=sacred_ground Zero
This also leads me to the biggest issue, the Wiki pages pretty much contains NO REAL DEFINITION,

It's not even clear if it has to be around a amenity=place_of_worship
