They Bathe in the blood of the virgin sheep for cleansing in the sacrificial ritual of the cat god 'Nalò the Hungered'

[–]DamienLeftwich 30 points31 points ago

As a Welsh resident, I would just like to say that sheep have feelings too.

[–]ikidd 34 points35 points ago

Just because you whisper sweet nothings over their backs doesn't mean they love you.

The old lady is a dervish and partakes in "blood healing" in Kazakhstan. Lookie here.

[–]getliT 2 points3 points ago

Well that's better than what I thought...I assumed cartel had gotten a hold of some tourists again.

[–]DemDemz 6 points7 points ago

Ahh memories...

Girl on the right...what a babe

[–]MisterSanitation 10 points11 points ago

TIL goat blood doesn't make a girl less attractive.

[–]Anthropophobiac 22 points23 points ago

That's all I saw.

All I could see were those ugly yellow crocs.

[–]ifuckinghateratheism 0 points1 point ago

Pretty sure she's 12.

[–]Son_of_Nero 3 points4 points ago

I fail to understand the negative aspect of that.

[–]ifuckinghateratheism 2 points3 points ago

Nothing, I was just confirming all of paxeman1993's fantasies.

Sweet mother sweet mother, send your child unto me. For the sins of the unworthy must be baptized in blood and fear.

[–]easygenius 11 points12 points ago

Covering yourself in sheep's blood isn't normal. But on myth it is.

[–]Brianne123 1 point2 points ago

In my Greek myth class... They would dig a hole like that and put sheep blood on them in order to gain access into Hades....

[–]CaptianRipass 2 points3 points ago

Borat country yes, very nice!

[–]subdep 2 points3 points ago

This kills the sheep.

[–]DoubleXX 6 points7 points ago

This is what happens when you interpret the bible literally.

[–]ne99ne 2 points3 points ago

Only the good parts. Like bloody sheep showers.

[–]abiggaydeer 1 point2 points ago

Horrific flashbacks to Agric Society initiations....

[–]revolutionblood 1 point2 points ago

brings back so many memories :)

[–]Manswaggle 1 point2 points ago

No "weirdest boner" yet? GASP!

[–]leet_hacksaw 7 points8 points ago

I have the most normal, socially acceptable boner right now.

[–]WhitePostIt 1 point2 points ago

That just seems unsanitary...

[–]melechkibitzer 1 point2 points ago

Washed in the blood of the lamb.... I think you're doing it wrong

[–]healthshield 1 point2 points ago

why is this a thing?

[–]skizmo 1 point2 points ago

What is it ?

[–]IMightBeFullOfShit 73 points74 points ago

Those are old children.

[–]skizmo 4 points5 points ago

eeeuh.. yeah, I noticed that:) My question actually is, why are they doing it. Looks like some pagan ritual.

[–]Beard_of_life 5 points6 points ago

It's some kind of religious thing, but I actually can't figure out which religion. Kazakhstan is 70% muslim, but they use no head coverings in this ritual and Muslims usually have rules about blood that would bar this.

It's either a really weird sect of Christianity, or some kind of healing cult.

[–]brosiusra[S] -1 points0 points ago

Heh. Sorry. NO idea. Exactly why I posted it.

[–]Danez 4 points5 points ago

You'll always have the dumbfucks that will huddle together and get goat's blood poured all over them in hopes of some spiritual understanding. Figuratively of cou...wtf.

[–]zygntwin 6 points7 points ago

Sheep, not a goat.

[–]Danez 4 points5 points ago

GEE THANKS

[–]distortednet 3 points4 points ago

occult's do some strange shit, yo.

[–]TheJackalMan -5 points-4 points ago

Correction: Christians do some strange shit. These are Christians being bathed in "The blood of the lamb". When I was younger and proclaimed myself a christian, a friend of mine went to a missions training camp and they did something similar to this. Its usually done after a day or two of fasting to increase the willingness to do something crazy like this in the name of faith.

[–]sekhmetx 37 points38 points ago

[–]EvanRWT 10 points11 points ago

She belongs to the local Sufi tradition. However, her practices, such as this "blood therapy" is old Shamanistic tradition.

This sort of stuff was very common once upon a time. You are looking at history that will be gone in a few more years.

[–]Nervette 0 points1 point ago

I like in picture 5, how the dogs and the cat look very excited for the ceremony's leftovers.

[–]SayceGards 2 points3 points ago

So... occults?

[–]LoveHateTestify 1 point2 points ago

Not Christians, cult. Not to deny that Christians have done some fucked up shit.

[–]DandaMage 1 point2 points ago

This was the first time I said "What the Fuck" out loud. And Ive seen some shit on r/WTF

i have lost control of my life

[–]djm1st 0 points1 point ago

You're spillin' all the blood!!

[–]Iarwain_ben_Adar 0 points1 point ago

For some reason it makes me think of an Eastern Orthodox Catholic influenced area/people.

Probably the garments and terrain.

It may have been a farm or vineyard but it was left to grow unkempt quite some time ago.

[–]TH3_P1R4T3 0 points1 point ago

Pfff man I was doing that before it was 'reddit cool'

[–]Michi_THE_Awesome 0 points1 point ago

What's going on? Why are they being bathed in sheep blood?

[–]easygenius 0 points1 point ago

Walk to Emmaus gets better every year.

[–]Explains_NSFW 0 points1 point ago

It appears to be a group of people (all half naked) with a man pouring blood from a dead sheep(?) on them...

[–]jingle82 0 points1 point ago

Any boob pics of that girl. MOAR!

[–]ObnoxiousSeizures -1 points0 points ago

Why does the girl on the right have to worship Satan? We could've gone out or something

[–]carebeartears -1 points0 points ago

it's either performance art or religious ceremony...but, come to think of it, those might be the same thing

Turkish package tours have really gone downhill.

[–]Barleybomb -1 points0 points ago

Look at this picture, and know that this is what your species must overcome to progress beyond earth and into the universe. We are so totally fucked.

[–]konf300 -1 points0 points ago

You know you would enter that pit and just to be close to that chick. As an added benefit, afterwards you two would have something in common.
