Why doesn't the Bible condemn cannibalism?

Does the Bible condemn human cannibalism?

  • YES! The Bible unequivocally indicates that cannibalism is against God's Will (OBJECTIVELY evil).

  • NO! The Bible fails to condemn cannibalism. But that doesn't mean it's not OBJECTIVELY evil.

  • NO. The Bible does not to condemn cannibalism because it is not against God's Will.

  • NO. And any attempt to condemn cannibalism must appeal to extra-biblical sources.

No it does not.You are correct.But what you and I were touching on deals with those who practice the Transubstantiation and Eucharist.Who ever they may be.And whether or not it was actually cannibalism.

Actually, I said
No Catholic sees hosts as Jesus feet, toes, and hair. They are bread and wine

No Catholic is eating Christ. Taking the Eucharist doesnt fall under cannibalism.

Transubsatiation has nothing to do with the OP a d my OP. How did you get that from what my point to the OP?

What? Me worry?
The Bible doesnt condonm killing. No Christian: Catholic, JW,Baptist,Non denominational,methodist, and so forth--do not commit cannibalism.

I dont understand your point. What are you asking or saying?

Actually the Bible is full of condoned killing (especially the Old Testament). The Bible doesn't condone murder.

To the OP
Murder is specifically forbidden. Since cannibalism is not possible without killing someone, it is by extension prohibited.

How does the Bible condone killing? All killing in the Bible had a motive thus making it a murder. Yet, it says thou shall not kill. Maybe rephrase?

The Bible doesnt condonm killing.

True. In fact, it appears to wallow in it at times.

No Christian: Catholic, JW,Baptist,Non denominational,methodist, and so forth--do not commit cannibalism.

No Christians do not commit cannibalism? Would you care to review that statement and (if needed) clarify?

A child is a seed of knowledge the conscious impregnates into the subconscious and is stored into the brain, giving birth to endless networks of knowledge. Good or evil seed planted into the brain and having control over the human. Reaping what they sow. Devouring themselves within.

I think youre placing what the Church does today and say that isnt in the Bible. Its the other way around. The Eucharist is in scripture...aka communion. Transub is in scripture...aka the blessings Jesus gave the cup and bread as He passed it around.

What it means today "could be" distorted. The meaning, original, is there regardless if its grape juice or translating hosts to blessed.

Grape juice isnt in the Bible and yet we dont put that down. I have to scratch my head at why people put down th Church.

Oh...you mean the last supper.It never mentions Eucharist or Transubstantiation in the holy scriptures.

You: True. In fact, it appears to wallow in it at times.

Me: "It does. Its a contradiction to its own teachijgs against it. Ten commandments"

No Christians do not commit cannibalism? Would you care to review that statement and (if needed) clarify?

"Take out the No or the do not. I see its a double
negative"


Again: Why doesn't the Bible unequivocally condemn the eating of human flesh by other humans?

"Why doesnt the bible allow canibalism?"

Rephrase please?

John 6
The bread (manna) coming down from heaven is light (knowledge and wisdom and understanding of God) coming from the brain. From tribe of Judah (186,400) The coming of the Christ. From the East. The tabernacle of God, there are 12 loaves, and the "menorah" burning 7 candles (the 7 energy centers in the body) the 12 loaves are the 12 cranial nerves camped around the brain. (12 tribes of Israel/12 legions of angels) When they are all united, here comes the flood. The physical body, that your soul resides in is not yours. It's composed of a spirit, flesh and blood and is the literal life in you. One is either devouring in that body or the Holy Spirit is being raised (resurrected from the heart and growing within up through the brain and back down)
Everything is "through" and "in" Christ, dying "in" Christ and resurrected "in" Christ. Within the human body. "I in you and you in me."

It has nothing to do with literal food and drink. It's all spiritual and within where Jesus says the kingdom is, within. The only place a person can be transformed, and one can find and know and experience God is internally, not externally.

I read the article in "got questions" and the prohibition against eating human flesh is pretty clear to me.
I'm speculating that had I not ever had exposure to Christian doctrine of any kind I probably would find
eating a human repugnant.
J.W. can accept organ transplants but shun blood transfusions as such is against what is clearly writen
in the bible. Acts:15
I'm a hunter, was raised in the country, parents raised almost all food, kept animals for slaughter.
The animal, whether domestic live stock or wild game is always bled, the blood poured out upon
the ground.
Why some poeple eat animal blood as food is beyong my comprehension.
