Brethren condemn torture and desensitizing media: Jesus wouldn't be in a room pushing a prisoner to his limit
Members of the Church of the Brethren condemned torture as a “blatant violation of the tenets of our faith” at their annual meeting in Pittsburgh.
Delegates adopted on July 6 a Resolution Against Torture, which described a biblical foundation for peace and a statement of “confession” for members who became “desensitized and complacent” to the use of torture, according to a church news release.
