Mar. 29, 2011 Human civilisation for many people on planet earth has reached a stage where it either claims, or can aspire to a high level of morality. It seems only a short time ago that those who didn’t live in the west were in such a backward state of ignorance that they were considered closer to the noble savage than to us. Unfortunately as we grow more ‘civilised’ and materialistic we have moved too far away from ancient practices that gave the human spirit power courage and vitality. It was contended recently in a broadsheet that western troops will never win a war because society has become so effete; there are no Cú Chulainns. A bit unfair perhaps, but most of us are restricted to a sedentary lifestyle; unlike Cú Chulainn, the famous Irish warrior, even our bravest of soldiers are unlikely to take on an entire army with only a sword and a shield. The only answer to this western malaise is to eat human flesh. Cannibalism is good. The majority of the countries of the world have outlawed this practise, not only because it was believed to be wrong, but also because it is repulsive to human nature. But, let’s face the truth, there are many examples of people eating human flesh simply to survive, the classic example being the Uruguayan Air force flight 571. That took courage, wouldn’t any human faced with this choice do the same thing? A famous earth mother book of the eighties, ‘Breast is Best,’ urges the new mother to prepare her placenta with onions and eat it. Why? It is an ancient practise; it nourishes the mother and through her milk produces strong and healthy off-spring. Recent scientific research has identified the placenta as a source of stem cells useful for treating degenerative diseases. This confirms the power gained from imbibing human flesh. Perhaps these arguments can be easily dismissed as harking back to a world of the noble but ignorant savage, a world where nobody wants to go back to, where cannibalism is really an act of aggression against one’s fellow human beings. This is a greatly misunderstood fallacy. Ancient civilisations ate human flesh as a way of acquiring the qualities of the individuals they had killed. The cannibals were actually honouring the dead. They admired the courage of their enemy warriors and wanted to acquire this. Now we understand their intentions we can at least learn from this. We in the west can insist that it is wrong to consume the products of human flesh. Actually we do consume flesh, in a way, the science of transplanting human organs, and blood transfusions has been the major success story of the twentieth century. This has taken cannibalism via a sterile scientific route; the organs of one individual are inside another. One human being has consumed the flesh of another to receive life giving forces. It may be strongly argued that whatever life enhancing qualities can be demonstrated by cannibalism it will never be accepted. The reality is, the Eucharist, the act of eating the body of Christ, and drinking His blood has been around for 2,000 years in the civilised west. This is the corner stone of one of the most influential forces in human history. The flesh of Christ invokes the power of spirit.
Cannibalism has been around since the beginning of time and it exists today albeit in a veiled manner. No one can argue against the value of transplants, we understand the need for a starving person to become a cannibal to survive, we may have moved away from religion and ancient wisdoms; but if we truly consider our ancestral practices of the past, and recognise how humanity still needs and craves for human flesh we can understand that cannibalism holds the key to animating our human forces. Cannibalism is good.
