**Corporal mortification is a valid form of penance.**

And in this case Rome frowns upon it.

I suppose that means you should repent or confess or something.

And God tells us that where in Scripture? Show us the verses which require penance.

The Catholic god sure is all about inflicting pain and suffering on his people.

Gotta do penance, offer up your suffering to God for whatever, spend time in purgatory to "purge" your sins, etc.
