Are you saying that if I say something that you find hard to believe, and then someone decided to torture me, you would then believe whatever I had said before I was tortured? -- I admit it!

I recall some studies which indicate that nails through the palms of a person's hands will not support the person's weight. The nails were actually driven through the wrists, which will support a person's weight. I also believe that posts were actually used. I'm not sure where the idea of a cross came from. R. C. Moseley
