Seriously... I was looking at my hands today when i noticed i have two callous like things on both of my palms in the lower center part...then i realised i have one on my right foot..but not on the bottom, yeah its on the top...on the back of my left hand almost directly behind the "callous mark" is a big scar, from an accident in my early life. Now maybe i am crazy...which prolly is the problem, but after finding this then adding in the factors of my side hurting really bad, like burning almost and me finding a cross scar on my face under my left eye, well its jus a little wierd... maybe i just need to lay off the X for awhile:rolleyes:

If you had stigmata, you'd know it for certain.

Yeah you are prolly right. So, if i all of a sudden just start speaking aramaic or hebrew or something, should i be worried?

If you start speaking Hebrew, please go to Olney, Maryland and teach it to my cousin who is being Bar Mitzvahed in a few weeks and I don't think he's learned a damn thing.

Stigmata is supposed to bleed non-stop, I think. So just lay of the X and you'll be fine.

It's probably nothing significant. I have callouses that I can't explain, too. One unexplained one on the wrist, and one that was unexplained on the knee, for me. And, a couple on one palm that I do know the origins of (they started out as minor injuries that triggered the formation of callouses, and they stay because I can't stop myself from messing with them).

I figure unexplained ones are just from rubbing on fabric or something like that, something that takes place over time without hurting, but triggers the body to form a callous after a while. After paying serious attention to what could be rubbing on my knee, for instance, I realized that it's precisely that spot where my knee bumps into my desk, causing a micro amount of rubbing between it, my clothes, and the desk. I sit here literally all day, and that "unnoticable" rubbing adds up...and I got a callous.

As for yours, the palms take a lot of abuse, so they tend to get callouses--and it'd be easy to get a callous on the top of the foot from shoes that rub (but not enough rubbing to make a blister), or even from resting one foot on top of the other.

As long as the rubbing continues or you mess with, pick at, and/or keep feeling at the callouses, they will stay. And it can take years(!) for them to go away even if you make sure to never mess with 'em.

Soften 'em up with some petroleum jelly if they start bugging you (it takes a while for that to work, too).

No, you don't have stigmata. A stigmatism? Maybe. See an eye doctor.

Perhaps you have a stigma. In that case, I'd suggest you lay off the dogma.

Jesus wants you to be like him, but not suffer like him. The callouses will go away when you stop wanking so much. :p

I don't know about your hands or feet, but the pain in your side is most likely a heart condition. Probably.

Gee. You rolled, and then ended up with calluses. And a stich in your side, a mark on your foot, and a scar on your face.

The most logical conclusion is that after eating beans and NOT getting laid, you "took care of yourself" to the point of getting calluses on your palms. You were probably dancing, raving, and/or playing with glowsticks too, which accounts for the lactic acidosis (i.e. soreness) in your side. At some point in the night, you either dropped something, tripped into something, or in some other way injured your foot. And finally, from excessive sweating, your face broke out. You were thinking stigmata, so you see a cross. Just like that nutjob in Kansas who saw Jesus in a potato chip, and the pancake which supposedly looks like Mary- it's the whole inkblot phenomenon.

So my advice is- first and foremost- don't roll unless you're going to get some. Second-streach before dancing around like an idiot. Third- wear thicker shoes. And finally- let the Christian pretentiousness go.

I figured as much, having had more than one mysterious injury after rolling myself. However, I am cranky today and thus cannot pass up my chosen profession, which is mocking religion whenever I can. The pay sucks, but making Christians angry makes me smile.

Stigmata refers to blood coming from the hands usually. :)

Crucification was through the wrists not the hands.

Only if the nails were what was holding the body up. The forearms could have eaily been bound to the cross with rope and then nails put through the hands.

Coulda also used duck tape, but I'm pretty sure rope was non standard. Then again, so was stabbing someone with a spear. Kind of defeats the point of a crucifiction. Almost makes me wonder if the Roman was being mercifull instead of mean as people usually think of him.

*If it even took place that is.

Possible kidney problem too.... Go see a doctor, stop taking X, and don't spank the monkey so much.
