CultureRe: 25 Most Cruel Torture Techniques Ever Devised In History by Addietunes(op): 11:55am On Jul 24, 2015
16. Coffin Torture

The most preferred torture technique in the Middle Ages was known as coffin torture. This method involved placing the victim inside a metal cage roughly the size of the human body; hence the name. The torturers also forced overweight victims into smaller cages to heighten their discomfort as they hung from a tree or gallows. Generally, they would be left there until the crows came to feed on their remains.

17. Iron Maiden

This torture device consisted of an iron cabinet with a hinged front and spike-covered interior, sufficient enough to enclose a human being. Once inside its conical frame, the victim would be unable to move due to the great number of steel spikes impaling them from every direction. The interrogator would scream questions at the victim while poking them with jagged edges.

18. Lead Sprinkler

Usually filled with molten lead, tar, boiling water or boiling oil, it was used to torture victims by dripping the contents onto their stomach or other body parts like the eyes. Using this device the torturer would proceed to pour molten silver on the victim’s eyes which resulted in agonizing pain and eventual death.

19. The Judas Cradle

Closely related to impalement, this gruesome punishment entailed having the victim sit on the pyramid-shaped cradle, after which they would be forced down on it by ropes with the intent of stretching the victim’s orifice over a long period of time, slowly impaling them. To add to the overall humiliation, the victim was usually naked and the device was rarely washed. So if the torture did not kill you, the infection contracted from it would.

20. Crucifixion

Principally practiced in antiquity, though it remains practiced in some countries today; it is one of the most well-known execution methods due to the crucifixion of Jesus Christ. It is a deliberately slow and painful execution where the condemned person is tied or nailed to a large wooden cross and left to hang until they die, which usually takes days.

21. Neck Torture

Humiliating and painful, this punishment was something of an endurance test where the victim would be hooked into a neck device, either made of metal or wood, which prevented the victim from adjusting into a comfortable position. The cruelty of this punishment lie within the fact that they were unable to lie down, eat, or lower their head for days!

Heretics Fork

This torture device consisted of a metal piece with two opposed bi-pronged forks attached to a belt or strap. One end of the device was pushed under the chin, the other to the sternum, and the strap was used to secure the victim’s neck to the tool while the victim hung from the ceiling or was somehow suspended so that they could not sleep. If their heads dropped, the prongs would pierce their throat and chest.

23. Impalement

Given his name, it should come as no surprise that this was the most favored method of execution by Vlad the Impaler. In 15th century Romania; the victim was forced to sit on a sharp and thick pole. When the pole was then raised upright, the victim was left to slide down the pole with their own weight. It could take the victim 3 days to die using this method and it has been said that Vlad once did this to 20,000 people all while enjoying a meal.

24. The Brazen Bull


Also known as the Sicilian Bull, it was designed in ancient Greece. A solid piece of brass was cast with a door on the side that could be opened and latched. The victim would be placed inside the bull and a fire set underneath it until the metal became literally yellow as it was heated. The victim would then be slowly roasted to death all while screaming in agonizing pain. The bull was purposely designed to amplify these screams and make them sound like the bellowing of a bull.

Culture25 Most Cruel Torture Techniques Ever Devised In History by Addietunes(op):
Torture has been a brutal reality for many unfortunate people. But the most unsettling fact about torture’s brutality isn’t its existence, but the way people have injected a perverted sense of creativity (and even pleasure) into the creation of devices designed to inflict pain. To prove our point here are the 25 most brutal torture techniques ever devised.

25. The tub


Known as the punishment of ‘sitting in the tub,’ the convicted person would be placed in a wooden tub with only their head sticking out. After that, the executioner would paint their faces with milk and honey; and soon, flies would begin to feed on them. The victim was also fed regularly and would end up swimming in their excrement. After a few days, maggots and worms would devour their body as they decayed alive.

EducationWhat Nickname Were You Given In School? by Addietunes(op): 1:35pm On Jul 23, 2015
When I was in secondary school, almost everybody had a nickname. Its a kind of trend occurring in secondary schools till date. At first, it was insulting but after a while you get used to it. Mine was "increase in yansh" due to my large size ass. The name got stuck on me till I ended secondary school. The name actually inspired me during my first e-mail creation which is increaseoye @yahoo.com. I still use the e-mail till date. Funny right?

Well let us know your nickname when you were still in school.

So if any of your friends tell you 'Addietunes'. You are a strong guy, you can't be moved, you are unshakeable, you get liver, nothing do you, you can never be moved no matter what you are going through.............. So, does that actually translates to - you will be motionless and just stand like a zombie @ a spot?! Or like a dummy? You realy need the Holy Spirit to guide you as those Men of God advised you. God bless you.... Read these passages and confirm where the Holy Bible tells us that the World/Earth is round and movable.............. Isaiah 40:22, Job 26:10, Proverb 8:27 and Luke 17: 31-34. God bless you again........
Besides, if you are trying to relate me, a human to a large solid planet, you should know that is also wrong. I am human, my belief can't be moved ( just like what you meant by the word "move"wink but for a world like earth, you can't say the same. Please give me another form of explanation, this one is invalid.

I'm sorry, but according to the verses you typed there, the shape of the earth is circle and not spherical. There is a big difference between the two of the them, one is a plane shape and the other is a solid shape. Your explanations too are out of point. You have not yet given a full explanation to my post. Imagine if someone recite you this verse without telling you its from the bible, would you be saying what you are saying? You need to know this , from my research, I have found out that during the dark ages, humans generally believed the earth is flat and immovable ( Isaiah 11:12, acts 1:8 and Matthew 28:20 can testify to that ). I now know that the bible was written during this period, that's why its written like that in the bible.
Christianity EtcChristians Please Explain These Verses by Addietunes(op): 9:21am On Jul 23, 2015
These verses are according to me the most controversial verses in the bible. I have asked a lot of pastors around my area and all they said was that I should ask the holy spirit for explanations.

I urge every bible scholar and christian here to explain the verses because Jesus Christ himself said in Mathew 10:33 that " whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father which is in heaven".

Here are the verses

Psalm 96:10King James Version (KJV)

10 Say among the heathen that the Lord reigneth: the world also shall be established that it shall not be moved: he shall judge the people righteously.


1 chronicles 16:30 king James Version (KJV)

30 Fear before him, all the earth: the world also shall be stable, that it be not moved.

Psalm 93:1King James Version (KJV)

93 The Lord reigneth, he is clothed with majesty; the Lord is clothed with strength, wherewith he hath girded himself: the world also is stablished, that it cannot be moved.

According to these verses, the world is immovable, which is wrong. If these verses are wrong, then the bible contain errors, but if the verses are not, please explain.

Romance5 Ways Ladies Behave That Show They Are No More Virgins by Addietunes(op):
1. They Are Quick To Anger When Asked if They Are Virgins

You heard me right.. Research and findings have shown that non virgin ladies are very quick to anger if you inquire about their sexual lives. The virgin ladies may smile and keep quiet when asked; but to the non virgin ladies, they will flare up and will embarrass you. You will hear something like, is it your business if I’m a virgin or not?

2. They Become Moody

Don’t get me wrong because I’m not trying to say that a lady who suddenly becomes moody has lost her virginity, but all I’m trying to say is that, when a lady just recently lost her virginity, she becomes incessantly quiet for a few days. She may lock herself up in her room probably because she has something up her sleeves

3. They Pick Quarrel At The Mention Of The Word Virginity

You heard me right. I have noticed that many non virgin ladies are usually uncomfortable when you place so much emphasis on virginity. It’s either they verbally attack you, or they tell you that you are still immature and really need some maturing to do

4. She Becomes Outspoken On s*x Discussion

Many virgin ladies tend to be quiet when people discuss s*x (though not in all cases). However, she used to be timid before when she was still a virgin, but when she’s no longer one, she may not be shy to take part and air her views when s*x topics arise

5. She Hovers Around Lecturers’ Offices

I’m a living witness of this. As a student, I have seen some ladies hovering at lecturers’ offices even when they have been told about how people avoid the lecturers because they are known for sleeping with students. These ladies are like, I only often go to his office see him and nothing more. *if I hear*

I watch exorcism films too,their often tagged with "true story" to make you more interested in them.....it's nothing but a farce in the sense that it is "a true life story" that is exaggerated to the levels of hollywood...you can check the true life story of those movies here...it's basically mostly circular arguments... "x exorcist claimed x experience and it's based on it".... it's the same as a UFO abduction claim or big-foot claim..

So are you saying that there is no way in the history of man that a priest was successful in casting out demons?
Christianity EtcAthiests Explain Exorcism by Addietunes(op): 6:58pm On Jul 18, 2015
I just finished watching the movie "deliver us from evil". The movie was a true life story and I could see how a priest used some incantations, the cross and some scriptures of the bible to cast out demons out of a person. Now my question is, if Jesus is a myth how come the priest could cast out the demons with what he used. I really need some serious answers.

This is one the thousands of reason I see religion as a failure. It first deludes you, then it confuses you and it finally controls you. I believe a confused religious person here would go like "so NIV bible is evil, I will never read it again. Father lord please forgive me for reading the wrong version of ur word".
