Kansas City, Missouri, officials are now requiring every church to submit a list of members and attendees along with their names, addresses and telephone numbers to city officials for tracking and surveillance purposes.
I am running out of adjectives to describe how completely insane the tyrannical abuses launched by state governors and local officials against pastors and churches are becoming. It is as if these leaders never bothered to so much as glance at the Constitution they swore to uphold and defend. They seem to be governing from some make-believe, dystopian viewpoint.
Yesterday, we received a desperate call from a Kansas City, Missouri, church whose local government is reaching new and terrifying heights in destroying our constitutional freedom. The Kansas City government is now DEMANDING that churches turn over membership lists, along with the names, telephone numbers and physical addresses of anyone who enters a church! This order also applies to all businesses.
The new order states that by recording names and contact information, the health department will be able “to more quickly trace, test, and isolate individuals who may have been exposed to COVID-19.” Anyone who does not provide this information should be refused entrance!
The Germans did this very thing to Jews – collecting the names and locations of all known synagogue attendees - in the early days of the Nazi regime.

[So hundreds can go to the local WalMrt at once and it is fine, but 10 people in Church and they need names and addresses. Uh, nope.]
Yep. My closes Wal-Mart lets in 500 max.
Maybe it’s 11 too many for churches.
Dress rehearsal for a left behind movie.

Are any churches complying?
I don’t know what to say beyond adding my voice to everyone’s on this thread. This is is ridiculous, it’s insane, it’s absurd, and it can’t be real.
Time to get out the guns. As Thomas Jefferson said, the Tree of Liberty must be watered, from time to time, with the blood of patriots.
Good luck to any brave FReepers who want to have a go at this problem. My prayers are with you.
Will they have to wear a special badge? Pay special taxes? Have their gun ownership “reviewed”? This is about as unconstitutional as it gets right before jumping off the slippery abyss.
Name freeper names.
Yeah, its time to become proactive.
Tell them to get a court order or pound sand. Get a lawyer to represent the Church.
Unless a member of the congregation has CV, they have no need to know any of this info.
And then, they should just tell the Church to inform it’s members that they may have been exposed.
I sure hope pastors have the wherewithal to send them a copy of the Constitution and the Bill of Rights instead of a list of names.
well now do stores keep a list of everyone who enters their business? govt offices? movie theaters? taxi cabs? busses? subways? restaurants? parks? beaches?
ridiculous well meaning, poorly thought out with unintended consequences..
Good idea but I do not think there is ever a requirement to be polite to a leftist, government, jackboot authoritarian.
