Pictured: Christian devotees nailed to wooden crosses in brutal reenactment of death of Jesus Christ
First topic message reminder :
http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/world-news/philippines-penitents-nailed-wooden-crosses-3429382
These pictures show devoted Christians taking part in a brutal reenactment of the death of Jesus Christ .
Penitents were nailed to wooden crosses as part of a Good Friday ritual in San Fernando in northern Philippines.
Five-inch stainless steel nails were pierced through the skin of people taking part. Pictures showed many grimacing in agony as they hung on the crosses.
One of those taking part was Danish film maker Lasse Spang Olsen. He was nailed onto a wooden cross but later taken away by medics on a stretcher, clearly in pain.
Another involved in the event was Ruben Enaje, in his 28th year of crucifixion.
The event happens every Good Friday and is the most extreme display of religious devotion in the Philippines, a predominantly Catholic country.

The story isn't offensive, it's Catman's bigotry which is offensive.

I've said it before but I'll say it again - the double standards and sheer mindblowing fucking hypocrisy on this forum is just unbelievable.
And here we have Tess the dog bleating on about a news story that she finds offensive, just because it's about Christians, when this fucking sow is responsible for some of the worst racist bile ever posted on forums.
Boo Hoo! And on a Christian holiday! It's not a fucking Christian holiday, since the majority couldn't give a flying fuck about religion, it's just another bank holiday!
The double standards of this forum? Well at least it isn't a forum full of racist bigots, like the toilet that you have come from Tess the dog!
I rest my case.

Catman is totally disgusting, and nobody ever does anything about him calling women sluts.

Are you suggesting that women being called sluts on forums is wrong?What about ugly pig faced sluts and c**ts,that's ok isn't it?
I have heard these terms are used on forums,no one stops them either apparently.

He is sick, and he's not proud he can't work. He just defends himself against idiots like you. And frankly you should be bloody ashamed of yourself. I know Phil's situation and you wouldn't keep going for two minutes if you had it. Bloody good Christian you're not.
Excellent post. ::cheerlead::
I find that some 'Christian' people are the most judgemental and seem to be somewhat bereft of the milk of human kindness and empathy.Of course there are some lovely Christian individuals but some are mere hypocrites.

Excellent post! Really? He just "defends himself against idiots.." - So why, when I posted criticism of someone slagging off Christianity with impunity, yet no-one must criticise Islam, does he resort to giving me personal abuse? Was my post aimed personally at him or at this thread? He constantly abuses posters personally and disgustingly, mainly the women, yet you say that's acceptable and Sassy says he's just "defending himself". What a load of bollocks! And my point about the double standards on here has been proved, validated and stamped in triplicate.

No I don't think personal abuse is ok,infact I think it is repulsive and disgusting as it has happened to me in quite an extreme fashion.I was pointing that out to Ragga who seemed to be upset that women were being called 'sluts' in this thread when she seemingly condones the most vile disgusting hate speech elsewhere of a very damaging nature.
It is NEVER EVER acceptable to personally abuse people on forums,I have been subjected to it and would never inflict it on others.
I don't know Catman's history,only Raggamuffin's.

I have left BF Rags.
Don't you think it should be against the rules on ANY forum to indulge in disgusting personal hate speech,don't you think that any decent human being should know instinctively when things are going too far and speak up?
After reading this thread and some of your comments I am truly speechless.

Speechless? If only that was true. Your whinging and whining is getting tiresome.
You left Bitchfest? You were posting on there very recently. I hope this doesn't mean you're going to transfer your fake outrage to this forum.

Being called a sl*t is unpleasant I agree.
It wasn't as bad as being called a revolting repulsive piece of s*it,an ugly pig faced c*nt,being told i was unable to menstruate, that I was so ugly and worthless I should kill myself,or the uploads of animals in wigs that everyone on your partners site found so amusing.
That is my definition of 'hate fuelled posts',especially since I did not know any of you,had no history with you,and never said a bad word to any of you when these disgusting posts occured.
That is not to say I condone any hate speech towards you either,it is all wrong,none of it should be tolerated.Grown adults should be able to debate on civil terms and with mutual respect.

Oh get lost. You posted alongside the festers and condoned their filth, and you're still doing so. You say nothing about their stalking and vile posts, so just do one.

Another bang on post Tess. Phil is always abusive to you and I whatever and wherever we post. He is not defending himself and Sassy has a hell of a brass neck to suggest he is. He is useful to her I guess.
She defended him spouting hate speech about Paganism because Victor can look after himself. W.T.F!?
Phil doesnt get moderated, his spamming trolling and abusing is all acceptable to his minders, but woe betide anyone expressing an opinion on his ranting. As you say doubled standards time after time.

There is nothing fake about my outrage, please don't make inaccuarate untrue accusations.I found it highly ironic and rather comical that you were complaining about hate speech considering what you apparently condone on other platforms.
I have absolutely nothing in common with someone such as yourself and don't wish to engage with you.You seem to have an empathy chip missing.
My 'whinging and whining'. I lost half a stone through the stress of it all,I have never encountered anything like that in my life and can only hope I never do so again.
I am happy to cease this conversation here.

I no longer post on BF but have alot of respect for the Admin there who treated me with kindness after the abuse I received elsewhere.
I think you are a highly unpleasant individual and don't wish to engage with you Ragga.

My forum is fine - you can't even read it, so I think you might have got confused. You posted on BF only yesterday - in the thread where they were stalking Stooo, and you didn't say a word about that - hypocrite.

Re: Pictured: Christian devotees nailed to wooden crosses in brutal reenactment of death of Jesus Christ
Fluffy, as I told FTL, just ignore the rude and abusive posters, put it all down to their ignorance. Don't rise to the bait, if you do you'll just get more of it back.
There are some good discussions in this forum, and most of us are pleasant and respectful to each other. Have a look around and take part.
---------------------------------
As for being nailed to crosses, as a sign of faith and devotion, I believe it is so pathetic and sad that people should go to such lengths. Do you think God is looking down and smiling, pleased, that people should go to such lengths in their adoration of Him? If so then he is one evil creature.

Stardesk is only partly right. If Fluffy doesn't want people being rude to her, she should not jump in and have at go at them. She's not new to these forums, she's been around a few of them, so she knows exactly what she's doing.
If she stays away from me, I'll have no need to reply to her.

There are some good discussions in this forum, and most of us are pleasant and respectful to each other. Have a look around and take part.
---------------------------------
As for being nailed to crosses, as a sign of faith and devotion, I believe it is so pathetic and sad that people should go to such lengths. Do you think God is looking down and smiling, pleased, that people should go to such lengths in their adoration of Him? If so then he is one evil creature.
I believe its very sad and pathetic too!

It's not sad and pathetic if they get pleasure out of it.

A lot of money is wasted in the NHS.
If people want to do it, why should anyone judge them for it?

People smoke, drink, do drugs all dangerous, thus we can hardly castigate people if that want to nail themselves to a cross to reenact what to them their savior went through. Yes it may seem mad, but to them it would seem the most humbling thing to do, to suffer what he suffered through crucifixtion

Lovely that!
Who would want to go and watch that sort of thing, some Christian loons getting nailed to a cross!
.....Must be a market for that sort of thing, a pilgrimage perhaps?

Well, you would probably go on a pilgrimage with a travel company to watch such barbarities, going by your nature.
Have you been trying google yet?

Why self-flagellation matters for Shias
I was disheartened to read about the trial of Syed Mustafa Zaidi, a 44-year-old man who has been found guilty of forcing two young boys to engage in self-flagellation (also known zanjeer zani), the ritualistic act of self-flagellation that has been part of Shia Muslim practice for centuries.
In 2003, I was consulted by Scotland Yard on this issue (though not on this specific case). A letter, signed by a leading Shia cleric, was issued as a general circular at the time which advised that, while engaging in rituals that may result in self-harm was a matter for individuals, there were health, child-safety and legal implications that people should be mindful of. It also clearly discouraged children being asked to take part in "any activity that could subject them to physical harm".
There are elements of the Zaidi case that will sound familiar to those who grew up in a Punjabi Shia household. There is nothing odd in the father of the household engaging in this particular practice. But I have personally never seen anybody coerced into it, although coercion can, admittedly, take many indirect forms. There is also nothing strange in seeing participants who, immersed in what appears to be a spiritual ecstasy, are made to calm down, often to prevent further injury to themselves.
It strikes me that, though Zaidi's actions crossed the boundaries of what is acceptable, the danger of this case is that the ritual of self-flagellation itself is demonised. Those adults who engage in self-flagellation with knives, chains or blades, do so with a consciousness of the ceremonial nature of the act, keenly watched by onlookers, children and adults alike, who, though they have seen it all before, continue to be mesmerised by the sheer spectacle of it – the display. This excitement is, for most, mixed with an actual sense of profound identification with the suffering of Imam Hussain, grandson of the Prophet Muhammad. Islamic history tells us that Hussain, a venerated saint in Shism, stood up to the tyrant of the day, Yazid, 14 centuries ago in order to save Islam and humanity from despotism and oppression, and to make the ultimate point about justice. During the 10-day siege, Hussain's camp suffered unimaginable trials and tribulations, which, to many Muslims, not just Shias, has no equal.
Hussain was beheaded and his body mutilated and the few among his followers who survived were humiliatingly made to march on foot to the palace of Yazid in Damascus, where they were imprisoned: many of them died. It is said that bystanders along the route, realising what had happened, began to beat themselves and weep. This event is regarded as the beginnings of the self-flagellation rituals that we see today among Shia Muslims.
Even though I grew up in a Shia household that was fairly well-versed in an understanding of Islam, I have nevertheless always been fascinated by what devotion to Hussain means for those who participate in the various rituals that occur around the annual muharram remembrance ceremonies. Hence a few years ago I embarked on a journey that led me to make Ten Days, a documentary film that tries to capture the essence of these devotional practices among Punjabi Shia Muslims in Pakistan.
The experience of making the film taught me that Hussain's tragedy will continue to resonate, not only because of what his martyrdom symbolises in the struggle of right against might (the struggle to renounce violence, despotism and tyranny through physical sacrifice), but also because, in an age where Muslim communities appear to be in a state of flux, it is this very sacrifice of Hussain that, paradoxically, provides an antithesis to extremism and violence. How? Because it gives a powerful sense of meaningful identification to those, especially among the younger generations, who see beyond the self-inflicted scars and the rituals themselves, and who in some way try and comprehend the significance of it all. The point about the apparent extreme self-violence is that extremism and violence in and of themselves are condemnable. Thus, without the essential dramatic immediacy that the practice conveys to both participant as well as audience, the rituals that comprise the passion of Hussain would be rendered meaningless.
It is possible that those few parents who encourage their children to participate in acts of self-flagellation see nothing wrong in encouraging children to understand the power of their faith through identification with the suffering figure of Hussain. Taking a decision to involve children in a ritual that might harm them, is, of course, wrong, as the Shia clerics such as Ayatollah Fadhil Milani, Maulana Zafar Abbas and others made clear. Harm to children would be against the sharia and the directives of Shia Muslim scholars in the UK. We must not allow our actions borne out of a "passion for faith" and an expression of one's own personal piety, to spill over into the lives of others, especially if we are responsible for them as parents.
But it would be unjust if the Zaidi case were to poison the wider public's view of a ritual that commemorates a death that, like the Christian concept of the crucifixion of Christ, is seen as the epitome of sacrifice for humanity, and the triumph of good over evil.
