I am all for deep religeous devotion, if that is what your thing is, but some people just need mental help.

…apparently was trying to commit suicide Thursday evening in his living room.
…he had been “seeing pictures of God on the computer.” He told them he had not seen the hit movie “The Passion of the Christ,” which depicts the Crucifixion of Jesus

“When he realized that he was unable to nail his other hand to the board, he called 911,” Boucher said.

It was unclear whether the man was seeking assistance for his injury or help in nailing down his other hand.

Remember Homer Simpson trying to free himself from the tar pit?

“And now I’ll free my other hand with my face.”

Asssuming for a moment that he was successful in nailing both his hands down, how was he planning on hoisting the cross? I don’t think crucifixion involves lying on the floor.

Oh man! I knew I was forgetting something!

On the other hand, I have discovered that I can type with my toes.

Disclaimer:

The above post bears no resemblance to reality in any way. Blackclaw has not nailed himself to a cross and can barely type with his fingers, certainly not with his toes.

Take a visit to the Philippines and see men get crucified in yearly re-enactments.
