a call to Christians

Please act on this to stop government-sanctioned torture.

“The thought of Jesus being stripped, beaten and derided until his final agony on the cross should always prompt a Christian to protest against similar treatment of their fellow beings. Of their own accord, disciples of Christ will reject torture, which nothing can justify, which causes humiliation and suffering to the victim and degrades the tormentor.”
--Pope John Paul II

You are invited to join a new tribe dedicated to completely ending the United States of America's unconstitutional and immoral practice of and collusion in torture.

    How do we put an end to torture? The politicians have a way of persuading Americans that it is justifiable, like Hitler had successfully convinced intelligent Germans to do something ignorant like the Holocaust. What is the solution?
