Well now you've seen it. My Uncle's been in the Philippines during Holy Week. He said even though he is a Catholic priest he found it very unsettling. I just found it to be a bit weird that people willingly have themselves nailed to a cross but worry about tetanus.

Very true. I don't think you'd see that kind of devotion in the U.S. Muslims have a religious feast where they scourge themselves. I guess it goes to prove the world isn't as Secular as some people think.
