Crucifications

Society Religion & Philosophy

It goes on in the Phillippines. Like every year some christians crucify themselves. It’s like a whole ritual and I think they do more than just crucifications.

I heard from a friend who watched a documentary where a man was telling that years ago his daughter was very ill and he sort of made a promise that if she’d be ok then we would crucify himself every year.

His daughter became ok and EVERY YEAR he crucifies himself. ouch Imagine when the wounds heal, it’s time to get crucified again.

:-/

I guess it’s all about faith. Although some Christians disagree with this practice.

Anyone heard about this.

I don't know about Phillipines, but I've seen some very devoted South American Christians do it. Looked quite painful.

I think I saw this documentary about Phillipines.

Armughal you could have come up with a better explaination. :hoonh:

Inuit you really think so? Some muslims don’t know about Hazrat Owais e Karni (RA) and you expect the Christians to know about him?

Some muslims? But most of the muslims state Jesus(AS) as Jesus Christ.
