Para nako, the Church should not encourage this because if Jesus were here He would not be happy with people mutilating their own bodies even if the intention is to worship God.
Jesus stressed the importance of the body as the temple of God. (1Cor 6:19-20) This is why causing pain and suffering to others or to yourself is not good.
Daghan lang gyud religious fanatics who take their faith to the extreme not knowing that what they're doing already goes against the very faith they are so devoted to (suicide bombers , crusaders etc)
