Easily, it's right here in this topic.

Are you genuinely defending human sacrificers? That's weird, man. I think the worst person in this conversation is probably a Mayan, and the second-worst would be her boyfriendyou.

---

@DrizztLink
All I do is say human sacrificers gone is a good thing. And you just accuse me of shit all the day long. Are you married to a human sacrificer?

---

So riddle me this.

Do you think the Mayans all took turns getting to wield the sacrificial knife?

Or are the sins of a few enough to condemn them?

Because again, white people be doing worse throughout all of history.

No one has defended human sacrifice.

But that's the only thing I brought up, originally. I wasn't talking about Native Americans. I was talking about this lot:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_trophy_taking_in_Mesoamerica
Most of the ancient civilizations of Mesoamerica such as the Olmec, Maya, Mixtec, Zapotec and Aztec cultures practiced some kind of taking of human trophies during warfare. Captives taken during war would often be taken to their captors' city-states where they would be ritually tortured and sacrificed. These practices are documented by a rich material of iconographic and archaeological evidence from across Mesoamerica.

I'm just glad a culture that practices torturing and sacrificing their human victims is gone. If you think that's a worse attitude that the act of violence, itself, keep it to yourself.

But the societies that genocide their people are still here, and you sit there like a coward.

Be consistent in your bigotry.

God judges the world. God decides who goes and who stays.

Apparently not, since white people did it.

Also good to see your Sky Daddy is still more important than their Sky Daddy, gotta rep the home team even if it's just as idiotic.

I cannot believe this is still going.

Mods, what is you doing?

One day CE will get a "haha funny" topic that won't devolve into genocide denying & other such clown shit but that day is not today.

But will CE ever admit that human sacrifice is wrong?
Maybe not. They're deranged.

I feel bad for disrespecting Complete Idiot's topic like this, but how often do you get to dunk on a clown?

I feel bad for derailing his topic, too. Although it does seem suspiciously focused to set up an immigrant culture vs native culture debate. Unfortunately, it got as bad as it could have. :/

This is delightful, if this is getting trolled I should do it more often.

You'll need a vocabulary more expansive than the teenager's favorite: "troll", to participate in this debate.

---

Gosh. Who the heck cares anymore? Even the best topics are purged from CE. This topic will go away, too.

Next time I'll know that Columbus Day vs Indigenous Peoples' Day is a lightning rod for immigrant culture vs native culture debate, which cannot be discussed in a truthful and honest fashion on CE of all places. :/

Humans should have the freedom to be sacrificed if they want to be

I don't kill. But if you read this article, you'll know these people needed some Jesus:

You're not too familiar with turning the other cheek, or anything Jesus actually said.

I've been very patient with you. But do you have a sermon you'd like to give?

---

Not really, Jesus is just as outdated and pointless as the Mayans were.

I was just wondering if you actually know anything about the guy you claim to worship then deny completely.

What's with all the recent religious debates?

More like a rain check. Although you've better people in your life you can inquire about Jesus than some stranger on the Internet.

Unfortunately, that is the lack of faith and trust exhibited in many immigrant culture vs native culture debates. Sometimes those differences can't be bridged in this lifetime. But if you had Jesus, but not methe white guy you can't trustyou'd be very well off.

Oh you have got to be fucking kidding me.

He's literally Christopher Columbus, get off your fucking asses, mods.

No one's celebrating genocide.
No one's celebrating human sacrifice.

But both sides are accusing one of doing the other. That's a typical Columbus Day / Indigenous People's Day debate.

.5% of indigenous people did human sacrifices and 100% of Christopher Columbuses committed genocide but those are totally the same thing.

By the numbers, Chris, try to keep up.

I'm shocked he hasn't started talking about the white man's burden yet

I'm honestly just impressed someone found a way to defend Columbus.
