Discussion of the Day
How come cannibals aren't spoken about much in society anymore?
Johana CJul 12, 20
I mean cannibalism is covered in movies and pop culture but considering how many tribes still exist throughout the world today who eat human flesh, one would think it would be more topical

              Is this the Agenda 2030 a friend talks about alot. I always have to tell her my Agenda is just to make it out of bed in the morning. Anything beyond that doesn't matter.

                        Hopefully because that is something of the past, especially in modern society. I think people may not be familiar with many of those tribes.

                                Satanic worshipping in most cases requires a human sacrifice, to eat ones flesh or to drink ones blood (especially that of a baby) is supposed to give them the life force of the life they took. I see it as a one way ticket to the burning sulphur of hell!

                                  its something like many other things that are hidden, not reported. But still relevant to society today.

                                              It’s too gross and inhumane. Plus, later in history when people became more civilised, food production became a lot more wide scale, affordable and easy to access. The law also made it less likely to happen. Did you know and can you believe that in few countries in the world, that cannibalism is outright illegal?

                                                I think maybe cannibals are more human now. I mean we humans are trying to cut down on meat too.

                                                    Cannibalism isn't really mentioned in mainstream media. Conversations gear towards other diets (eg: pescatarian, flexitarian)

From what we are told most of them once existed in Rainforests and other remote areas. Thanks to the Greed of so many a very large proportion of those lands have now been stripped bare of all forests etc. and the tribes have been virtually exterminated.
