Dear Rev. Louis P. Sheldon,
It's nice to see a Christian organization support the president in his assertion that he has the right to vigorously interrogate (okay, some squeamish folks might call it torture) any and all potential enemies of this country.
I think it was Jesus himself who said "torture your enemies". Oh wait, Jesus didn't say that, but Lord knows He would if he had to face these enemies of freedom. He'd recant that "love your enemies" stuff in a heartbeat if He was here today.
For the lord was clear that we must NOT "turn the other cheek" and we are NOT to treat others as we'd like them to treat us. Wait a minute, that's not right either. Freedom isn't free! Eye for an eye. Kill 'em all! That's better. We're to do to them what they do to us -- or do worse first.
Look we have to interrogate these "people" (and I put them in quotes because they're not christians) to protect ourselves. The fact that it may lead to similar treatment of our soldiers is not the worry of this administration, or the church -- we're all to old to have to serve and thus don't have to be concerned.

P.S. When can we start burning witches, or at least stone a few gays to death?
