Daily Caller:
The recent unearthing of the remains of sacrificed children in Peru highlights the widely known but little discussed topic of human sacrifice and cannibalism — especially of children — among native populations of the Americas.
This latest find is not unique. Evidence shows that humans were butchered and de-fleshed in the Nanchoc Valley, and at the Pyramid of the Moon, in the Moche River Valley, at the Piramide Mayor at Caral and at the Cave of the Owl in the Peruvian Upper Montaña. Human bones, charred and often shattered to extract the marrow, have been found at Los Gavilanes, Huaca Prieta, Asia, and Aspero — to name but a few places.
Further, the curious study of paleofeces, where coprolite (naturally preserved feces) is studied to determine the food available to ancient populations, shows the presence of human proteins, which can only come from consuming human flesh. Fecal samples are taken from various sites throughout the Americas.
Peru also preserves the earliest evidence of headhunting in all the three native cultures (the Paracas, the Nazca and the Huari). Given the dry climate, well-preserved heads have been found which show the process of ritual mutilation (the brain was removed through a hole in the forehead and the lips were sealed shut by two thorns). A similar practice existed among the Jibaro of Puerto Rico. MORE HERE
Well, rumor has it the Podetsa’s are still doing it.
In answer to your question: because it wasn’t a white Judeo-Christian activity.
“Why Can’t Cultural Relativists Admit That?”
simple … to admit limits to behavior is to accept judgement
“How dare you judge me!” … the argument of all Progressive behavior
Radio Matt, not to get too technical but the Vickings got into human sacrifice. It’s a Judoe-Christion thing regardless of race.
Reminded of how liberals claimed the Anasazi were the noblest of Indians, to whom evil modern whites should aspire. Then they found their garbage dump of cooked human bones.
Nothing new under the sun. Pepsi is partly flavored with derivatives of aborted children. Man, by nature, is pagan and savage and always has been. No exceptions.
Because it doesn’t follow the narrative.
Because it isn’t “politically correct.”
Just as slavery was (more or less) universal prior to the nineteenth century and wasn’t confined to the enslavement of negroes, the facts, themselves, are controversial inasmuch as they dilute the “message,” child-sacrifice and cannibalism were (again – more or less) disparaged by Western (Greek, Roman, Teuton, Gallic, Jewish, &c.) civilizations and traditions at a fairly early stage of development. Carthage was reputed to have continued the practice into the last two centuries prior to the Birth of Christ – but that may have been Roman propaganda.
Our modern “relativists” are full of shit – and we continue in our own version of child-sacrifice through abortion – though I don’t believe the “doctors” who murder the innocents chant to Moloch out loud (of course, I’ve never attended an abortion ceremony).
izlamo delenda est …
Cultural relativists judge all of the time. Ask one what they think of modern day pro-life people, and you’ll get plenty-o’-judgin.
These are Beelezebub’s and Moloch’s homies don’tcha know.
Title of linked article: “Remains of 140 children unearthed in Peru, the largest child sacrifice in human history”
Obviously, the author does not consider abortions sacrifices. Peru’s got nothin’ on US.

God sent those “evil” white Europeans to the Americas to wipe out the native cultures because of their idol-worship, cannibalism and enslavement of other tribes.
“…though I don’t believe the “doctors” who murder the innocents chant to Moloch out loud”
I doubt it too, but from God’s POV — people led by demonic ideas to slaughter their own children for purely practical reasons (avoid crop failure…avoid lifestyle impact…same thing) — I doubt there’s a difference.
“God sent those “evil” white Europeans to the Americas to wipe out the native cultures because of their idol-worship, cannibalism and enslavement of other tribes.”
God did no such thing with Europeans.
The ONLY time God commanded a people to wipe out another was Israel and the Canaanites, to be exterminated down to the last woman and child and even animals, for a very specific reason He deemed necessary.
Europeans, who as a group have hearts just as wicked and pagan as any other, were never commanded to do that. Not by God, anyway.
Your claim also assumes God has a favored nation or nations today that He sends for to do His bidding. He doesn’t.
By their works I judge them
Those people back then ate each other.
They deserved what they got

Actually, God did use the British, French, Spanish and Italians to attack native Americans. God uses wicked and pagan nations to attack (and destroy) other nations. If you read the Bible, read the book of Judges. I’ll give you a small sample.
Judg 3:5-8
The sons of Israel lived among the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Amorites, the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites; 6 and they took their daughters for themselves as wives, and gave their own daughters to their sons, and served their gods. 7 The sons of Israel did what was evil in the sight of the Lord, and forgot the Lord their God and served the Baals and the Asheroth. 8 Then the anger of the Lord was kindled against Israel, so that He sold them into the hands of Cushan-rishathaim king of Mesopotamia; and the sons of Israel served Cushan-rishathaim eight years.
Judg 3:12-14
Now the sons of Israel again did evil in the sight of the Lord. So the Lord strengthened Eglon the king of Moab against Israel, because they had done evil in the sight of the Lord. 13 And he gathered to himself the sons of Ammon and Amalek; and he went and defeated Israel…
Judg 3:31
After him came Shamgar the son of Anath, who struck down six hundred Philistines with an oxgoad; and he also saved Israel.
Judg 4:1-2
Then the sons of Israel again did evil in the sight of the Lord, after Ehud died. 2 And the Lord sold them (Israel) into the hand of Jabin king of Canaan…
NASU
This doesn’t include the Assyrians, Babylonians, Medes and Persians, Greeks, Romans and Muslims who attacked and subdued Israel.
God doesn’t have a “favored nation or nations”, but He does use a nation or nations to subdue or destroy other idol-worshiping nations. He has done this throughout history and He will continue to do this until Jesus returns.
God is spreading Muslims throughout the world right now to be used as a sword of judgment. (When has a class of people been so protected by so many nations as the Muslims today?) The prophecy in Revelation 6:7,8 speaks of Islam. The color of the fourth horse is green, not ashen or pale. The color of Islam is green. Islam has 1.6 billion (one quarter of the earth’s population) adherents under its control. Islam is the religion of death and still kills with the sword (knives). This certainly causes one to consider (or reconsider) the validity of the Bible.
