As fetishes go, that's pretty tame. I once saw a man crucified in front of a dozen or so hardcore fetish goers at a private party..... (please don't go there with bubbles! I was onnly making an observation!)

I don't need to go there. The wonderful world of the internet has surely already done that. Cartoon paedophilic porn for all!

I knew that Jesus had a bunch of wacko followers, but I must have missed the part where he went from simple carpenter to object of fetish.

More of a pain and submission thing. ...BTW, he was nailed up through the fleshy part of the palms, not the old style roman way of between the Radius and Ulna. Sissy.

God, I have too much free time on my hands. And an uncaring audience.
If that was an Akira-class ship, you would care!

We care, but would bubbles really need to phaser a tribble? Not that I'm complaining, mind you....

Jesus Christ had nails nailed into his wrists. This was to prolong the suffering and the dying. If the nails were placed in his hands, his weight wouldn't have been supported.

A bit of ropework would solve that problem.
For that matter, the nails in general are superfluous to the act of crucifixion. Any suspension of upper body from shoulders or above will be lethal in the long term, leading to exhaustion asphyxia as the muscles necessary for breathing face unbearable strain.
Any hope of mercifully suffocating this thread, too? While this may not be the fastest topic drift in Flare history, it certainly is one of the most extreme...

Thats what I said. Radius and Ulna are the two bones in the forearm and the romans nailed people at their juncture just at the wrist. ....anything else will eventually tear out from the body's suspended weight. That classic paintings and images of Christ nailed through his hands is not really accurate.
...by the way, did you know the Star Trek Magazine is gouing to cease publication? My fault for this bizarre tangent into torture.
