So... is it safe to assume that self-mutilation is a common practice among religions?

Yes, but not every religion recommends or endorses such things.  Being common and being universal are, of course, not the same.

You can search for "genital mutilation" and find some more sickening things, that are far, far more disgusting than people volunteering to be crucified.  The most disgusting things are the things forced on others without their consent.

True. I think I'll spare myself the horror, though. Just reading this article made me uneasy. I honestly don't know how any of the spectators can stomach it, but I suppose it depends on the person.
