2. What happened to Jesus after He died,
before He rose again (it took 3 days!)?
Well, how are we supposed to know? Most people believe that Jesus went to Hell and took back the keys to Heaven, meaning that he could decide who could get in or not...and it seems that that could take awhile

3. People in the Phillipines yearly practice the ritual of actually physically nailing people to a cross to remember what Christ did. However, I believe that
only Jesus was meant to endure this pain (feel free to disagree). If I was to meet a Phillipino who practiced this, how would I tell him/her that what (s)he's doing is wrong?
Well, In the Bible it says that your body is to be a temple for Christ, how does destroying God's temple do anything to honor him? We don't enslave Africans in order to remember that they eventually got freed. The only reason that Jesus went through all that suffering is because he was to be the willing and perfectly pure sacrifice, meaning that humans wouldn't have to keep making temporary sacrifices to atone for their sins.
