What better way to show your faith than suffer the way Jesus did?!  Here Filipinos decided to re-enact the crucifixion of Jesus.  And, he indeed looks like he's in pain as they pound a nail through his palm!  According to Reuters, this reenactment took place in the Cutud, Philippines, a small town north of Manila on March 29, 2002.  "JESUS CHRIST!!!"  ...well, er..  "JESÚS CRISTO!!!"
