Pope Piel isn't into flagellation, but a great back rub with rapid "judo chops" to the shoulder blades is therapeutic.

I'll leave this task to my wife, however. See there are some real advantages to a married priesthood!

Nope.

Some sort of haircloth, but no spankings/whippings. A few too many connotations these days.
