To civilized people, the practice of cannibalism, or eating human flesh, is a horrible thought! Yet it was practiced by many primitive tribes and may still be practiced in some parts of the world today.
These tribes didn’t eat human flesh because they liked it; they did it because it was usually part of a religious observance or part of a sacred ceremony.
Ancient tribes of India ate their parents as a sign of respect and honor. Many primitive people believed that they could acquire the traits of people they admired or respected by eating them, just as they ate lions to become lionhearted; deer, so they could run fast; and foxes, to be cunning.
Nobody is certain how many cannibal tribes exist today. Some say none; others say that there are still several tribes on the South Pacific island of New Guinea practicing cannibalism.
The rarest disease in the world, called Kuru, or laughing sickness, affects only the cannibals of New Guinea and is believed to be caused by eating human brains!

well i was in science class and we were talking about the disease and i really got interested in this stuff…..i really woudl like to study these things
what drives somone to canniblism? how could they bare the thought of doung that? what happend in there life to drive tem to do that?
I don’t look at cannibalism as a disease. I think to eat another human being you either can’t be in your right mind, you have some sort of different disease, your in some kind of deep depression, or you are undergoing various emotions that have been triggered by another existing factor.
It is immorally wrong. I don’t care what religion they believe because there are no other gods but only one God who says “You must not murder.” One of Ten Commandments. All things are created by God, and we have free will to believe in Jesus who is Son of God to go to heaven, or don’t. All other religions will lead to hell because Jesus is only way to save us from hell if we confess our sins to Jesus and believe in Him.
Okie dokie dooshbag!

well, you obviously have been brainwashed to believe your religious cult is right, o_O who are you to say there religious beliefs are wrong? Point blank religion is a matter of opinion. & btw- christians stole half there religion from egyptians, pagans, etc.. research!!!!! Everyone is entitled to an opinion no matter how worthless it may be- For all u know gawds an alien. o_O
If you are raised to be one you obviously would not frown upon it. I’m vegetarian and often I encounter people who ask me “How can you love without meat!?!” well… the same goes for the cannibols. Your either raised into it or it’s something you get use to. Besides… what makes the cannibols so different from those people who be-headed or burnt people just because of their faith?
I am absolutely terrified of cannibals i wish to never encounter one. They are not human to me to be able to kill their own kind to eat their friends or family is just wrong. Morally wrong and in common sense it is wrong. If i was given the choice to ever die of hunger of to eat anothers life i would rather die of hunger.How can anyone go through with eating human flesh. When they have animals to eat now they still eat humans. I’d love to wish it was all a myth a story from a comic but it is very much true unfortunately. Makes me sick to think someone can go through with that surely with your mind you are able to think this is wrong they are human just like me why should i end their life! but no they just think that persons life meant nothing they are just food to me i don’t care if they have a family ill eat them.
Gives me nightmares to think of cannibals eating someone. Are they like humans? do they hold human converstations or do they just kill all day? i’d like to now that one thing.
Amen brother!!! thanks for understanding that my people are just as human like as to those who burn people because of their faith. I myself are a cannibal and was raised as one. Me and my people are cannibals but we have a tradition where we can eat human brains because we believe that it will make us more stronger mentally. I appreciate your understand that we are all humans no matter what we eat and believe in. CAN I GET AND AMEN!!! AMEN
lets just say yall are making me hungry thinking about my people being weird because we eat people. mind your own business and worry about your own people. If I ever come to america I will eat all you tasty humans. Better watch your back fools!!!= }-
We are not humyns at all, we are vampyres from Dorathor. I Cannibalion, is the ruler of vampyre cannibals in New York. We are the perfect predator, because we look and act humyn even though we are nothing like your kind. If you have any more questions please ask, and I will gladly answer truthfully for you. Knolege is power, only to the unintelligent. My kind only eat eachother during ritual sacrifice to me or the other rulers, but we always drink blood. Farewell humyn.
If I ever meet the one above, My vampyric cannibals shall join thee in thy great feast. Thank you my brother for defending the point you made. hail thee
To me you humyns are just prey to my vampyric cannibals, including me. We shall drink your blood and eat your flesh.
you know nothing about cannibals, not even my vampyric cannibals that I control.
Cannibals are freaks.. if ne come down my end i wud fuk em up… they are basically zombies…… now a question do you kill for food?
i live in ny and i dont believe cannibals exist in ny and if they do prove it to me just dont let it be me your eating
We Kill people to eat.
Back about 8 billion years ago, tribes did it for other reasons.
Human’s actually taste mostly like normal meat.
It also has to do with what your diet it.
If you eat only fruit, you’ll probably taste sweet.
If you eat unhealthy food you’ll probably give us General anaemia.
Which mostly kills us off.
I for one never have never gotten General anaemia, and I hope I never do.
Cannibals are sick people trying to run away from God. People in the world are trying to do things their own way to take the easy way out because deep down they are scared. All other ways that contradicts scripture if from Satan. We are all humans in the image of God and no we do not come from apes.
your childish fears are fantastic , i just want to consume your fears and possibly a bit of you too
Prove your statement…..prove there is a “god”…prove this “satan” exist …..o yea prove evolution didnt take place eather
cannibals are like vultures, those birds which eat dead animals even their own kind!
they are cheap human beings!you would never see a lion eating another lion or an eagle eating its own kind,why? although they are ANIMALS they still have pride and respect their own kind!
there always is some useless and cheap creatures among others,some people like einstein use their lives creating things to help people,some other on the other hand are useless and dont know what to do with their life, kill humans and eat them!
bravo idiots!
and the funny thing is they always say “you people dont know what we know we’re so smart u cant see the things we see” well f you and kill yourself you idiots!
laughable creatures
it is very disgusting to eat human beings..God provides us everything to survive.there is no reason for us to become a monster!!!!!!
