If anything they'd be against torturing people for fun (well, if it was a Bene Gesserit doing it) because it would be a 'weakness' on the part of the torturer. Unecessary cruelty is a big no-no. Necessary cruelty on the other hand...

Frankly, if they turn up I'd expect them to be a radical offshoot of the Church of Man, seeking to produce some sort of ultimate human...

And (be scared here) Detians are PART of their plan... 'cause they've been pulling Lord F's strings since 1600 or so.

Well, perhaps not - but they'd be a great candidate for the great evil Wolfie mentioned in UF2 and never got back to.
