As no one here has proven an objectively true and correct morality, noting the subjective nature of morality is a valid point. I'm not resorting to it.
Quote:No, there's nothing to excuse when it comes to torture and I don't respect people who try to defend it. I've got nothing in common with people like that and I'm glad about it.
Personally I don't respect people who make an emotional knee-jerk reaction in place of reasoned consideration.

And you do have at least one thing in common with the 40% of people without religious affiliation who support torture.

It's correlation does not prove causation, and no, that's not what I'm arguing, although that is another valid point.
