The explanation that I read is that churches are built as cheaply as possible, so the lock on the door is of such poor quality that you could open it with a beer can opener. That explanation probably dates back to when doors had actual keyholes.
When I was in high school my friends and I all thought calling a beer can opener a "church key" was a derogatory reference to the Christian churches that disapproved of alcohol consumption and also a sarcastic comment on "Christians"' who sinned all week and went to church on Sunday.
I still have no clue what Jar's single right answer is.....42 should cover it.
