WHIPPING THEIR BACKS to a bloody state and nailing themselves to crosses, devotees in the fervently Catholic Philippines marked Good Friday today with extreme acts of faith that have become tourist attractions.
In towns north of Manila at least five people were nailed to crosses, while in an island to the south hundreds of residents dressed up as Roman centurions as part of decades-old traditions in the Southeast Asian nation.
These customs flourish, although they are not officially endorsed by church leadership.
In the island of Marinduque, about 150 kilometres south of the capital, residents in centurion outfits and heavy wooden masks, played at hunting down a renegade Roman soldier called St Longinus.
Legends say Longinus thrust his spear through the side of the crucified Christ.
Christ’s blood spurted on his face, healing the centurion’s blindness and convincing him to change sides.
The climax of the week-long drama is tomorrow when the centurions capture Longinus and dramatically “behead” him. Watch Video:
