After reading the article on torture, I feel that the author didn't really cover the bases of any of the religions. They briefly mentioned what articles had been written and how those have affected people. The author did talk about the religions and how certain religions view torture, but it wasn't as in depth as I hoped it would be.
I don't feel like this was really an argument for or against torture. It was more of a overview of different religions and how they see it. Not necessarily arguing for one side or the other on torture. The author did say that most religions were finding ways of condoning, and "fixing" the viewpoints on torture.
I did find it interesting that different religions have different viewpoints. And that how religious you are affects your perspective on is considered torture, and what is a religious way of condemning someone. I wish the author had gone into more detail about how religious people are and what they think of as torture.
Overall, it was interesting article. I just wish there had been more detail on the things covered.
