I thought it was totally inappropriate, but I needed the job. I didn't think it was illegal, since they probably asked everybody that question. I figure if it's still legal for the Boy Scouts of America to discriminate against atheists and pantheists, by denying them admission into their organization, how is it illegal for employers to do the same?
The only thing in the link you sent me about it is,
Avoid questions or comments about an applicant's race, national origin, age, religion, military status, gender, marital status, physical attributes, or sexual orientation.
He didn't care what my religion was, he cared how I felt about God, because he's also a minister and has his kids and kids of his friends, working for him and I'd be in a position where his kids would be my interns, who would probably bring up God from time to time. IOW, I wouldn’t be allowed to go around taking God’s (or Jesus’s) name in vain.
