We all know according to the Christian Bible, Jesus was apprehended, tortured, he wouldn't "talk," so to speak, to Pontius Pilate, he was found innocent, yet the crowds and religious authorities condemned him, he was tortured some more, and then brutally crucified, the Christian Savior and God. You'd think that would be enough to turn white (or any race) evangelical Protestants off to the practice of torture. Am I missing something here?
