I think people would miss the African child, specifically the child's family. Why not snag a vagrant?

I don't really know. But I mean a lot of people seem very convinced that we do. So I figured they're probably right, right?

Anyway the thought that I'm sending people to Jesus actually makes me want to kill people. I'm doing them a favour. If they kill themselves, they go to Hell or have some bad repercussion (even Erin says this) but if I kill them, they get to hang out with Angels in bliss and happiness.

I'm just saying, I think you're all wusses for being afraid of eating people. I can go kill a cow, cook it, eat it, it's delicious, and nothing bad happens. Likewise with people. What's the big deal?

It's just your social conditioning that tells you not to eat people. You're all a bunch of brainwashed slaves.

Have you been to Africa?

I could probably pay the parents like two dollars to kill, bleed, and skin the kid for me.

Life is cheap in Africa.

And yeah, I think most cannibals just target orphans and vagrants and prostitutes because no one misses them.

I'm not saying it's cost-effective to eat people. It's probably more expensive than Kobe Beef. It's a delicacy, not an everyday thing. Most orphans etc are worth a good bit of money if you put them to work in the sex trade or on one of those big water wheels like on Oliver! The Musical. So I mean you either buy them or steal them, like any meat. Buying people meat from the 3rd world is probably safest, but stealing in the 1st world is more convenient.

I don't think there's a contradiction. Obviously my belief in the afterlife is fairly weak. I mean I said outright that "I don't really know"

It's possible to have an inkling or a leaning that is based on data from others but that is not social conditioning. I'm not conditioned to believe - I could easily go either way. My decision regarding the first quote has been made with great reflection, not reflexively like socially conditioned people.

Have you decided not to eat people through deep personal reflection? Or did you just decide reflexively, unconsciously, through childhood conditioning?

Live consciously. Decide for yourself whether cannibalism is good or bad. Maybe do a 30 day trial.
