Topic: Would you eat a human? - page 43. (Read 81731 times)

Whatever the situation I am facing, I will never eat human flesh. Just imagining it was disgusted. Many factors make me not eat human flesh. The first I will not like the taste, then, eating human flesh is a very disgusting thing to me, then there is no habit of eating human meat here, and my religion also does not allow us to eat human flesh. There is no reason for me to eat human flesh.

What if it was the sacrificed child of your enemy? What if it gave you secret powers? What if it held the key to world domination? Would you do it? Would you eat another person?

No I don't want taste my own flavour  

Never ever even when someone offer me a million dollars for this task. Eating flesh of human is disgusting thing, it is also unhealthy and forbidden in all the religions i know so far.

The lack of cannibalism is the only thing that separates us from the animals. I'll never be a man. There are times when predators attack humans. Then the hunters find them and destroy because after that, they will do it always. The man who eat own kind will forever lose the fear of murder and must be destroyed like a wild beast.

I am not sure, I see your angle yet. I claimed, that apes and human beings are close to the point, that to expect vastly different muscle structure is preposterous (now, the way those muscles are distributed through out the body is different matter). Then you go out of your way to tell me, I consider humans too separate from apes. What the fuck? What is your point then?

There is different muscle structures even among human beings - reflecting different body mass, height and even density. However, neither of those influence the "taste". Neither do nerve endings.

Between various primates you might find differences in taste based on their nutrition and age, not because of nerves or mass.

A lot of films tell about this or that story where people go To all the hard just because they want to Survive and at the same time human bones lay on them so often. This is very regrettable, but the facts remain facts. Anything from history you will not throw out after all fact such facts were real histories of mankind.

This was not the article I read since it seems to be only several days old...and doesn't say the same thing I was implying anyway...but is interesting to the discussion none-the-less

The idea I was thinking of was that in humans more nerves service the muscle fibers (which is believable given our much larger brains.)  This makes it less easy to contract all muscle tissue simultaneously.  I will say that when a jolt of adrenaline hits humans can achieve impressive feats of strength.

You seem to be of the relatively antiquated idea that humans are not apes.  I learned that we are, and it makes perfect sense to me.  In fact, I'm of the understanding that humans and chimps are more closely related than are chimps and gorillas.  That is to say, the divergence was farther back time-wise on an evolutionary tree.

As for the 98% similar genome, I believe that a 0.1% change would be perfectly sufficient to produce a vastly different muscular pattern.  The function of DNA in protein synthesis is such that genome percentages are not a terribly meaningful metric when it comes to defining physiology.

Currently it is in vogue to shit-talk humans, consider ourselves inferior in all ways, and generally engage in self-loathing.  As I understand things, humans are uniquely good at long duration running and it is probably and artifact of being evolved for 'endurance hunting.'  That is, running game such as large ungulates to exhaustion.  From a physical fitness point of view I find that 'something to be proud of' so to speak.

It would be a hard decision because it's your survival at risk. You might die when you don't eat the human flesh or something. There could be other ways to survive but if that's the only choice, I guess that's the only one to do. It would be disgusting but you will never know your mental state there for not being able to eat for a long time, you will become desperate.

Well unleast someone's being realistic here, not referring to the cooking itself but to eating the human meat. Since, if you've seen the previous replies, a lot of people said that they wouldn't be eating the human meat even if they starved to death. I'm seriously hoping that they don't end up in any similar situation just to see that they were very wrong.



What about the situation above in the replies?
