Jeff Sharp, county attorney for Barren County, and a church youth group are surveying all Kentucky legislators and legislative candidates with a single question: "Have you accepted Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior?"

Fifteen have replied so far -- all answering yes -- but Rep. Kathy Stein, D-Lexington, filed a resolution yesterday asking her House colleagues to disregard the survey and all "theocratic tendencies."

Stein, who is Jewish, called the survey an "intimidating, bullying letter."

"This is doing what the constitution prohibits, and that is offering a religious test for public officials," she said. "That's the long and short of it."

Sharp disagreed. "Anybody can vote for whoever they want to," he said. "You can't restrict us from participating."

What's next, an oath?
When is this theocratic bullshit going to stop?

From what exactly was Jeff Sharp "saved" by religion?
Since he's the Sheriff's department contact for victims of crimes I hope he isn't asking them if they too have been saved before he'll take action.

3. One state at a time, the religious nuts are changing it all; this crap

in Kentucky, Missouri making Christianity the official state religion, South Dakota outlawing women's choice and several states following their lead then others will start copying them.
