That is well said and true, Paul, you and I will break under torture in situations of interrogation. But not to become a walking murderer armed like an Iraqi soldier or officer is. If 75% of the people became torturers in that wierd experiment then I'd say that perhaps only 25% of adult males are men. There are things in life that separate the men from the boys and responding properly to evil is one of them.
I think this truth was wonderfully portrayed in that Michael J. Fox movie, Casualties Of War. Only 1 of those soldiers on the patrol where they raped the girl proved to be a man.
