Actually, it sounded like the DNC official was more interested in trying to "out" Bernie as an atheist. Although of Jewish extraction, he's never been known as following any religious practice. The DNC official said to get someone to put him on the spot about whether he believes in God:

On May 5, a DNC employee asked colleagues to "get someone to ask his belief" in God and suggested that it could make a difference in Kentucky and West Virginia. Sanders' name is not mentioned in the note.
"This could make several points difference with my peeps. My Southern Baptist peeps would draw a big difference between a Jew and an atheist," DNC chief financial officer Brad Marshall wrote.
