Privacy in Matters of Faith
Poll finds that church members oppose the sharing of membership lists with political campaigns. The Republican National Committee (RNC) has targeted church lists in this year's election as a source of potential support. They solicited assistance in obtaining lists from Southern Baptists and Roman Catholics who support President Bush. The RNC argues that the church lists are public information and available to anyone.
