Thou Shalt Torture

Survey: Support for terror suspect torture differs among the faithful

This is kind of disappointing to me. You would think Christians, whose Messiah himself was tortured at the hands of the Romans, would see the evil in torture. Sadly that doesn't seem to be the case. They say history is bound to repeat itself, and the stories in the bible that speak of God's people losing their way seem especially relevant right now.

What would Jesus do? Do you think he would support torture? I highly doubt it if you look at his teachings. But wait, did they get thrown out after 9/11 too?
