SWM, 80, Enjoys Chastity and Whipping
Rev. Michael Barrett of the insane hardcore Opus Dei cult-within-the-cult explained to CNN:
"This voluntarily accepted discomfort is a way of joining oneself to Jesus Christ and the sufferings he voluntarily accepted in order to redeem us from sin. 'The Da Vinci Code's' masochist monk, who loves pain for its own sake, has nothing to do with real Christian mortification."
That's right. It couldn't be more different. Christians lie about why they whip themselves, while simple masochists tell the truth.
Show me a euphemism, and I'll show you a sublimation.
Or I'll just spank you, if you're into that.
