The article lists Tester's religion as "Church of God", but as our Church of God article shows, that's an extremely ambiguous term, since there are dozens of completely unrelated churches going by that name, with vastly different doctrines. Does anybody know more specifically which Church of God he belongs to? --Delirium 20:54, 16 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I've removed all the images from this list. There are several gaps, and they don't really add much to the list. Besides, they slow down the load time of the page (especially on the list of all the current representatives). --Tom (talk - email) 20:30, 10 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
What on earth are the religious affiliations doing on this page? Don't you guys have separation of church and state? You might as well mention height and eye color. --KarlFrei (talk) 13:10, 14 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
The list was begun by using the fields from Current members of the United States Congress. I suppose the religion column is important to some people; it does show that the class is diverse to a limited extent.--Appraiser (talk) 14:38, 14 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
