Pinoys nail themselves to crosses!

[zeroo]

CUTUD, Philippines (Reuters) - Nearly 20 Filipinos and a Danish filmmaker were nailed to crosses to re-enact the crucifixion of Christ on Good Friday, a practice the Roman Catholic Church frowns upon as a distortion of the Easter message.

The annual Philippine ritual draws thousands of spectators to San Fernando, 80km north of Manila, to see penitents flagellate themselves and a series of crucifixions in a recreation of Christ's death on the cross. "It was a great experience between me and God," 48-year-old Danish film director and stunt coordinator Lasse Spang Olsen, who stayed on the cross for more than 10 minutes, told Reuters before being treated for his wounds. "It was great. It was fun."

But for some in the Philippines, where about 80 per cent of the population are Catholics, the re-enactments of the crucifixion are an extreme display of devotion.

Christianity teaches that Jesus Christ died on the cross on Good Friday and rose from the dead two days later, on Easter Sunday. "I will do it as long as my body will allow me," said Mr Danilo Ramos, 43, who has been crucified 23 times. "I hope God will see my sacrifice and take good care of my family."

I pity the pinoys, they are the Asian race that inherited the most bullshit from their former European masters! The only thing not whitewashed is their language.

Imagine going through such an ordeal to reenact an event that did not happen.

I can be the Roman soldier who pierces his lung with a trident.

I can tell you that even the most hardcore Catholics in Europe won't do such freaky shit like the Pinoys. The most they'll do is whip themselves.

Most Pinoys are Catholics, and CHC is not a Catholic church.

That said, CHC has services for Pinoys.

The Asian born again Protestants are more hardcore than the whites. Look at the way the former president of south Korea mistreated his own citizens who are non Christians. I have a bad hunch that sinkies will experience the same one day.

they are the dumbest of all lot. sometimes, i wonder is there really a ticket to the heavens just by doing some stupid things.

if these pinoys are good hearted people , who doesn't kidnap and anyhow kill fishermen with machine guns, no need to nail on a cross also they will go to heaven.

if these pinoys are bastards who kills, scam, kidnap etc, forever being nailed onto a cross will still guarantee them go to hell.

religion is somewhat similar to filial piety. things don't happen overnight. if u are filial to your parents, u will know they will protect and bless u in spirit.

what these pinoys actions are only similiar to holding a grand funeral after their parents had died when for their whole lifetime, are never filial to them.

..... just come to Sinkieland and you will be super well taken care of.

Agree 101%-and none other than the PM has endorsed that on his facebook-calling locals who criticise Pinoys a disgrace.

What sort of independence day celebration? Look at the names of the country and major cities, don't suggest any independence. Pinoys are fucking dumb bananas.
