I think that might have been what our old college minister talked about once. He really made sure not to leave out all the horrible torture techniques they used on Christians. He told us a particularly sad story of a young girl who they thought wouldn't last a day, but in fact she lasted a long time being tortured in just so many terrible ways. Her determination to not renounce her faith caused the men torturing her to grow tired and feel bad about torturing her so many of them stopped. The crowd watching even yelled to let her go.
I would hope I would be courageous and faithful enough to fight through something like that.
