Well no-one has tortured more people than the religious authorities I guess. But in America, more religious people seem to be conservative. Guess that when Jesus said love your neighbour he was wasting his time.
I suspect who has tortured and mass murdered more people were atheists such as Stalin, Mao, Hitler...
nice try at supporting religious bigotry though.

I think a lot of it has to do with the Christian tendency to embrace torture as an article of faith, as witnessed by the huge success of the movie "Passion of the Christ", which revelled in the supposed torture of Jesus. After seeing what their Savior went through, Christians would consider waterboarding a leisure activity.
Could you possibly in more insulting or ignorant of Christians?
What I find most fascinating, is that those most likely to protest "torture" also tend to support abortion and are against the Death Penalty. Hang on, I'm making a point here.
WARNGING the following contain: General rule here folks, if it doesn't apply to you personally, good for you.
Which makes you wonder really, where the true face of evil is here.
On one side, you have pro-life, pro-enhanced interrogation, pro-death penalty religious folks who believe innocent life trumps all.
And the other side of the coin, those who believe that innocent life is expendable. Yeah, "it's just a lump of cells". Sure. "We cannot put him to death, what if he is innocent??" 2.21 recidivism rate of killers means 2.1 people will die. "we cannot torture people to get information that saves lives. That's immoral! It's better we do not torture and people die, at least our values will be intact!"
All of you lefties that have your panties in a wad because W used some enhanced techniques to save possibly, yes even your life, innocent peoples lives... You people scare me. I mean that. You berate religious folks for supporting "torture" yet you ignore the reality of the world around you.
You people claim you are better because you don't believe in religion, yet you cannot face the reality there are some REALLY nasty people out that WOULD saw your head off if they got their hands on you.
And who dies to save your asses? Conservative religious folks tend to populate the Armed Forces. Didn't meet too many atheist while I served.
I actually knew a couple in my platoon the first week in boot camp. Strangely enough, after climbing Mount Motherf****r, they started reading the Bible and talking about getting baptized.And who dies to save your asses?

Bravo! Dr. Savage is more and more right, "Liberalism is a mental disorder."
You made more sense in one sentence than all the leftists combined on this thread.
The analysis is based on a Pew Research Center survey of 742 American adults conducted April 14-21.
It did not include analysis of groups other than white evangelicals
I wonder what percentage of homosexuals in this country support torture? Seeing as how their's is the only demographic that seems to matter anymore...

What is more Christ-like then torture? Honestly come on now. Christ would be the one filling up a bucket of water and setting up the ironing board.
That is offensive.
Religious, atheist, Communist, Capitalist, Catholic, Protestant, Islamist, barbarian, civilized....
Have nothing to do with supporting torture. Supporting torture has more to do with the dark side of human nature itself.
Insulting Christians is okay here, remember this. However, should you mention homosexuals, well, can't have that.
Do you have reliable data to support that assertion?Mass murder aside, I would bet the Catholic church has tortured more people than all those dictators combined. The Inquisition lasted for 600 years.
