Quote for the Day
"As the church meditates on the passion of Jesus during Lent, the torture of prisoners by U.S.-approved methods ('coercive interrogation') should not be far from our minds. It is still being done in our name, to enhance national security. Apart from the debate over whether torture is 'effective' or not, Christ's words, amplified by his own graphic suffering, mandate an end to this reprehensible brutality: "You did it to me," - Elizabeth A. Johnson, C.S.J., Distinguished Professor of Theology at Fordham University in New York City, in the Jesuit magazine, America.
