Former Kentucky Council of Churches, Nancy Jo Kemper emailed the following to Kruser, on WVLK 590 AM, in Lexington. Kruser subsequently read this on air, and is now repeating it each time the subject comes up, even though we both have referenced the restrictions in KRS 237.110, which do not seem to support this statement. http://www.lrc.state.ky.us/krs/237-00/110.PDF
Someone please assist in rebutting this claim, unless it is accurate. Please provide evidence to support the rebuttal, so I can ask Kruser to correct this on air.
People listening to his show now believe it's illegal to carry into church, based on the claim below, which cites no supporting evidence.

The only thing I can find were the Acts references at the bottom of KRS 527.110:Subject : FW: Guns in church
It is illegal to carry concealed in church unless you are a minister or church officer so far as I know. That was the only modification in 1998 to the regulation that originally did NOT allow concealed carry in churches. The modification to the absolute prohibition was snuck in to another piece of legislation on the last day of the 98 session. Nancy J Kemper Private citizen --retired
.. however, I cannot find any text for these acts.Amended 1998 Ky. Acts ch. 417, sec. 1, effective July 15, 1998; ch. 494, sec. 1, effective July 15, 1998; and ch. 606, sec. 136, effective July 15, 1998.
