Evangelical Churchgoers More Likely to Back Torture

Who would Jesus waterboard? And big surprise here - evangelicals are the more pro-torture of any Christians.

I guess they read their Bibles, but don't comprehend the words to well.

So those who proclaim to follow the peaceful and enlightened teachings of the man who was nailed to a cross are more likely to support inhumane practices that are not unlike those employed by the men who nailed him there. You can almost smell the irony.

I think they must be reading the OLD testament.

No big surprise here.

It never ceases to amaze me how little those who profess the Gospels have learned from them.

But then, I guess they'd need to open the book and read it instead of shaking it my face.

I am shocked and amazed that the religion that brought us the Spanish Inquisition would ever be pro-torture.
