My interpretation of the bible overall, (Yes, I have read the bible) would put your views a odds with the perceived views of christianity. Either you are or you aren't because torture and christianity are mutually exclusive. |
Having the ability to torture wouldn't be useless though, because people would just spill their guts before they were tortured, wouldn't they?
I don't know the minds of terrorists and criminals but I'd talk before being tortured if I knew having someone torture me would be an option for them.
I'm not excited about the idea of torture, nor do I think it should be widely used, however I am frightened of the idea that it will be GONE forever and how people will walk all over us.
p.s. God says He loves me the way I are.
p.s.s. I am tired of being drawn and quartered about this whole Christianity thing. I am pretty sure you are leaning towards torture.
