 | | "'Churches have a responsibility to avoid partisan entrapment, just as political parties have a duty not to attempt to entrap them,'" said the Rev. Stephen J. Sidorak, Jr. |
 | | Frances Grandy Taylor of The Hartford Courant reports on the many prominent church leaders (including the conservative and Bush-tied Southern Baptist Convention director, Richard Land), who have condemned the Bush-Cheney campaign's tactic to enlist church support. |
 | | Sidorak called it a "'troubling development,'" that would jeopardize the separation of church and state--the intent of which, he said, wasn't to keep the church out of public life but to prevent manipulation of the church by the state. |
