15-Year-Old Boy is Crucified to Celebrate Easter

In the continuation of a grotesque practice, a 15-year-old boy was crucified in the Philippines to mark the death of Jesus Christ. Of course, such practices would be strictly criminal in the United States with no leeway given under claims of free exercise.

For those Christians appalled by the Shiite practice of cutting children with razors and swords, the crucifixion tradition shows how such barbaric acts are not unique to Islam. For a prior entry and videos of this practice, click here.
