What is God's attitude on torture?
A:The Bible does not specifically say what God's attitude to torture may be, so we can only infer his attitude from the attitude of the Churches over the centuries. From the fourth century onwards, through the Middle Ages and almost up to modern times, the Church has viewed torture as a proper means of eliminating heresy and ensuring loyalty among its followers. We know that witches, but also heretics, have been burned at the stake, by both Catholic and Protestants. The view of the Catholic Church is made very clear in the 1520 papal bull of Leo I, in which he said that Martin Luther falsely claimed (33) "To burn heretics is against the will of the Spirit."The Middle Ages were a time of religious fervour, as well as a time when the Church sought to control every aspect of personal and political life. It was also a time when all manner of sadistic and cruel torture were freely practised. If the Church reflects the will of God, then the will of God is that torture is there to be used. The alternative would seem to be that the Church (Protestant as well as Catholic) is unresponsive, even disobedient, to the will of God. In fact, anyone who claims to be a Christian and supports the use of torture in war is either a hypocrite or is implicating God in the use of torture.

I cannot speak for any other Catholics but myself, I would rather suffer the worst torture and be martyred that give up my Catholic faith for anything, may God grant me the strength for that honor.

The highest honor we can receive in this life is to conform ourselves to Our Blessed Lord, and follow Him as He carried His Cross and died on it.
