It was out of line because religion should have nothing to do with employment. The debate is essentially a job interview. As such, religious questions are completely inappropriate.

Again, is there any other job interview during which an interviewer would be allowed to ask how a candidate's religion would influence his decision? Unless you're applying for a job at the Vatican, it's grotesquely inappropriate.

Is it normal to ask about politics in job interviews in Tennessee?
If you're running for political office, sure. Just as a religious question is fine if one is seeking a religious job. The Presidency is not a religious job.

Forcing people to pay for abortion and contraception when their faith tells them that both are sinful is a violation of their freedom of conscience.
In that case, I look forward to receiving my Iraq War rebate.
