SAN PEDRO CUTUD, Philippines -- Seven Filipino Roman Catholic devotees, including a woman, were nailed to wooden crosses in a Good Friday reenactment of Jesus Christ's suffering that was watched by thousands of spectators but frowned upon by church leaders.

Three devotees wearing crowns of twigs were nailed to crosses by villagers dressed as Roman centurions on a dusty hill in San Pedro Cutud village, and four others were nailed to crosses in nearby farming villages in San Fernando city north of Manila, tourism officer Ching Pangilinan said.

The spectacle reflects a unique brand of Catholicism that merges church traditions with folk superstitions. Many of the mostly impoverished penitents undergo the ritual to atone for sins, pray for the sick or for a better life, or give thanks for what they believe were God-given miracles.

Crazy folks

Hmm...perhaps nailin' them to crosses ain't such a bad thing.

At least we know where they're at on Easter weekends.

As long as they don't want to start nailing herectics to those crosses, I'm good ...

Problem with being a heretic is - you can't look at those with the hammer and nails and say "You're goin' to hell for this."

Nails are supposed to go thru the wrists not the hands.

Or is he thinking, "Damn...can't fap to this."

Why are we shocked when different cultures to us, do crazy things?

You have to ask?

Impaling people on a cross with big spikes through their hands to emulate a religious fairy tale from many millennia ago.

Yep, perfectly normal weekend itinerary. Not shocking at all. :error

Yeah I mean those kooky Christians in the last 3 years alone have committed over 10,000 terrorist attacks killing and injuring over 100k people. Plus all the gay people toss off of buildings and the subjugation of Christian women is another problem...those Christians boy...better watch out for them!!!

Does turning this into a pissing contest somehow make nailing people to a cross sane and normal?

No no they are nuts and I agree with the post, it's just that baldbastard thinks muslims are above reproach and dindu nuffins.
