Man cuts off penis and testicles
A man who cut off his penis and testicles, was found running naked down a Canadian city street screaming "Repent, repent, fornicators."
The man was spotted running down the street in Penticton, British Columbia, wearing only a woolly hat.
Paramedics covered him in a sheet before taking him to hospital.
His severed penis and testicles were later found in his home.
It's not known if the body parts can be re-attached.
Police say the man was placed in custody under Canada's Mental Health Act, reports the Winnipeg Sun.
Wow. That just sends shivers!
Mentally ill people sometimes mutilate themselves. Often the mutilation involves cutting or burning with cigarettes. Looks like this guy took it to extremes!
This kind of self-mutilation is apparently not as uncommon as one might think. The Cathars were probably most famous for this practice. I suppose it's just another example of how a belief in radical Christianity and sin can make you insane.
whew, and I hope just in time, I don't want this guy out there breeding any more like himself.
Your wish might just be being answered, Dys! A few months ago, I read somewhere that cases of dismemberment in Western countries (especially America) are on the increase due to two main reasons: people wanting to be eunuchs for strange æsthetic reasons, and due to religious fundamentalism...
I can't see the point.

They were? Care to provide a reference? I have never heard of that aspect of Catharism. LaDurie's study of inquisition records in the Montaillou region would surely have turned up this grisly practice if it were common. I would also expect Malcolm Lambert's 1977 study, or Carol Lansing's 1998 study to have mentioned this.
To be clear, I do not disagree with the theme of your last sentence, but I do have doubts about your example.
Thanks.
Oops, hobitbob, I may indeed have used the wrong sect. I'll have to go back through my books.
No problem. I wasn't trying to be insulting, I was just curious.
reminds me of the tv-spot for "red rose tea" ,where the lord upon finding out that red rose tea is not available in merry old england says "only in canada you say ? PITY ! ". we're tough up here in the cold northern part of the world ! hbg

Another convert from "The Passion"?
I personaly know a male to female transexual that used a Skilsaw to do self-sexual reversal surgery. Fortunately, she survived and now enjoys the actual remedial surgery. The only side affect of the remedial surgery is loss of feeling in her feet. Being a sufferer of extreme dyslexia with the loss of feeling in her feet must make getting around really hard for her is several ways.
