[QUOTE="Chaosmancer, post: 9391013, member: 6801228"] I also don't tend to find it useful, but here we are with people saying "isn't this alternative more evil?!" And while, I appreciate your optimism, I'm reminded of stories of people taking their own lives, and the lives of their children, seeing it as the only way out of slavery. You are free to make your choice to what you believe gives you more hope. We know that many people made that same choice. And that others did not. Also, it may bear keeping in mind that usually human sacrifice and ritualistic cannibalism are misrepresented in media. For example, the Aztecs famously had human sacrifices, but if you look into the records we have it seems like their religion stated that the blood of sacrificed fueled their god to allow him to battle 24/7 against the moon and her sisters, to protect the earth from total annihilation. A sentiment like: [ATTACH type="full"]370335[/ATTACH] could very easily have been at play within their culture. [/QUOTE]
