Episcopalians Don't like Torture

A recent survey by the Pew Research Center found that Evangelical Protestants were the most likely to say that torture is often or sometimes justified. The group most likely to say that torture was never justified were those unaffiliated with any religious organization.

I doubt this is a direct relationship. Maybe more to do with education level and political affiliation of evangelicals. But it's saddening. If loving your neighbor as yourself doesn't mean you shouldn't torture them, then I don't know what it means.

A side note: mainline protestants (which includes Epsicopalians!) were the religious group most likely to say that torture is never justified. Ten more points to Episcopalians.
