I actually went through the link you quoted, line by line, and what you’re claiming simply isn’t there.
Indeed, the link he posted spoke about sacrifices, and not cannibalism. So I am not at all making the same claim that Fenrir tried to make.

They'll drag you for the next two hundred years. Even their unborn children will seek vengeance.

They blow up Iran with bombs but think Iran wouldn't resort to using their own bomb delivery system.

Africans who refuse to see themselves through a colonial lens.
I'm going to see this as semi-valid, if just for the African generalisation.

The below is from one of your own sources Fenrir, do note. Go far back enough in any culture and you'd likely find human sacrifice.

Human sacrifice is also predominant in Yoruba culture and religion. “This is a practice found in every race and culture throughout the world” Awolalu and Dopamu (1979).

Awww, you almost had it little man. He said my ancestors. Im not British. I posted documented academic evidence naming each specific tribe? You can back with British and vague Europe and completely missed the point. And how are neanderthals relevant? Different species.
How do you presume to know my size and gender?

Most tribes were cannibalistic at some time or the other, and Africa is not a tribe.

My thought is that people should learn to reason critically and show that they do. And for that reason alone, along with the many important others you've mentioned, I'm adding the following to your intelligent thread.

Christianity EtcRe: I'd Prefer That God And His Army Of Angels Take Over My Whole Life Than Opposite by budaatum: 2:13pm On Mar 03
I think the side effect of God and his Army of Angels taking over one's entire life makes one not take over one's own life. And that is irresponsible, since one wouldn't be doing what would glorify one's God.

Besides, God did say one would be responsible for one's own existence, so it's ungodly to leave such responsibility to God and God's army, especially since the Word of God teaches one not only to take charge of one's own life, but to be the salt of the earth (influencing and in charge), and rule and subdue and take charge of all the whole earth (or at least one's part of it), and the moon and Mars and be blessed.

Basically, it's not between God or the devil taking charge of one's life, but which one would one use knowledge learnt from to take charge of one's own life and existence for the glory of one's God.

Cannibal practices were also reported among various Nigerian peoples.
Vikings is not the equivalent of Africa. Europe is. Here in blighty we are aware the history is whatever we decide to write or not erase in our books.

A better argument might be, Europe changed their ways earlier than some. But a counter could be that slavery was the cannibalistic eating of the might of others.

paxonel:
You are very correct!

And by wisdom, fruit may not necessarily mean fruit in that context but it is symbolic. And it literal meaning is possibly a mystery to this day
Of course fruit does not literally mean fruit. Today we'd likely call it learning, since that's how we acquire knowledge. It's fruit will be wisdom, or at least we'd be learned.

Now imagine a God saying "you must not learn, for in the day that you learn you will surely die". Most of us will likely tell that God to go do one.

That God wouldn't stand a chance if we had already been eating every seed bearing fruit in the first place, as we'd have become far too knowledgeable to be demoted from "Be fruitful and multiply; fill the earth and subdue it; have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over every living thing that moves on the earth”, to be then put naked in a poxy tiny garden to tend it. We definitely deserve no more than garden tending if we refuse to eat fruits of knowledge

Fascinating book I daresay. Pity we tend to mostly be literal in our reading of it.

How does having an affair and the lady setting herself on fire have to do with governance or anything.
It has a lot to do with electability as far as I am concerned. But thankfully, democracy allows you to make different choices on criteria that differ to mine. And I'm glad the repugnicants are making themselves appeal to you.

DeOTR:
There are some 200 gods in Yorubaland and everyone has the liberty worship any of them. My Mom is from Ogun family, my Dad from the river goddess, Osun. Different form of worship in the same family.
Except for some overzealous islamists among us, we are Yoruba first before anything else. We don't really care who you worship, just don't force your views on us. We approach politics the same. A regular Yoruba person hates herd mentality: everyone having the same opinion on everything. We are not zombies.
When we people worship Osun we join them, when we worship Ogun we join, when we worship Obatala we join, when we worship Jesus we join, when we worship Sopona we join, when we worship Allah we join when we worship Owala we join them

We are Yoruba first! The gods come after us.


Alasheyori, I have not yet watched your video but will. This point raised in your writeup has been a wonder of mine for years. I myself have six cousins who grew up in one bedroom, 3 of which are hijab wearers and 3 are born again Redeemers. Their father is the Muslim, and my aunty was the Christian.

One might not so much notice it amongst Yorubas in cities, but we village people pride ourselves on not letting the gods divide us, and should teach it to other tribes.

You see, the things you won't see on Fox News. Khamenei is the actual person in the government who decreed a Fatwa against the building of a Nuclear Bomb. And the hierarchy fall in line and obey.

There's been calls over the decades by the hardliners in the Iranian government to remove the Fatwa and allow Iran build a Nuclear bomb as a measure of deterrence.....Khamenei always said no.

The US knows this. Trump has had numerous analytical briefings about this. The Israelis know this... The entire western governments know this. But they need the propaganda to further the Isreali project that has captured the entire west.

For what concerns stopping Nuclear Bombs, the US never needed military force. Funny as it may sound, the US already had an ally in Khamenei who stabilised things, prevented radical movements and specifically ordered a firm NO to building a nuclear bomb. .

Oman Foreign Minister, only yesterday on Face The Nation, declared that a deal had been reached that went further than the JCPOA deal. Only yesterday.

Today they are killing him. This just makes the hardliners correct over the decades..... That you can never negotiate in good faith with the US or Israeli. The only answer they understand is force. And so, like North Korea, a bomb must be built.

Now the only guy standing in the way of a bomb is dead, ....... what replaces him? The exact thing they all warned us against.

Guess what? They all knew this all along.
I did not believe the fatwa bit and had to go search, and found now Khamenei is dead Iran would likely replace him with a person who disharamarises Iran's nuclear ambitions.

Many things influence voters. As a voter how will an affair and suicide affect your own vote?
I am very certain I can find a much better person to vote for to represent me in government than a married man with 6 children who sends sexual text messages to a married staffer who sets herself on fire raum. I wouldn't vote for a grabber of the rear end of kittens much less him. Besides, he is repugnican.

How would it affect your own vote?

How is the affair related to setting herself on fire?

Affair is no crime and setting herself on fire is an unfortunate incident or is there a link between the 2.

Al Fayed was having an affair with Diana
Diana got into an accident and died

What is the link
Let's wait and see if the electorate link setting herself on fire to his affair. It might make you realise not everyone reasons like you do.

Iran Bombs Qatar, UAE, Bahrain, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, and Kuwait!
Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) on Saturday said has launched missiles and drones towards Israel following the joint US and Israel strikes on the country.

It also launched strikes on the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Bahrain and Kuwait, targeting US forces there. The four gulf countries later announced the closure of their airspace. Meanwhile, AFP reported that loud explosions have been heard in the Saudi capital Riyadh.

US Army is woke.

FSBoperator:
There was a collision on the high seas between USS Truxtun , stealth litorial ship and a USN Supply ship,

The vessels were being lined so as to supply USS Truxtun with supplies but something went horribly wrong and the USS Truxtun slammed onto the broadside of the Merchant Supply vessel.

This is beyond a competency crisis but looking more like a mutiny to sabotage the combat vessel so as to return back to dock for repairs.

Remember, a similar incidence occurred involving the USS Gerald Ford aircraft carrier which is now heading back to dock over the collapse of its sewage system that was caused by sailors onboard stuffing T-shirts down the toilets to clog the sewage system.

It seems American sailors don't want to fight Israel's provoked and senseless wars anymore.
