Pew Research Center has released some new polling on US citizens' attitudes to use of torture. Results are interesting:
1. a majority of Americans actually approve of the use of torture under some circumstances.
2. Catholics approve of its use by a wider margin than the general public.
People who claim no religion (secular) were the least approving of torture - See article below for the numbers:
Americans, especially Catholics, approve of torture
I thought it might be interesting to repeat the poll question here, to see what attitudes P&N folks have on this subject.
