    Quote
    To the family next door, Armin Meiwes seemed the perfect neighbour. He mowed their lawn, repaired their car and even invited them round for dinner.

    Other residents in the small German town of Rotenburg also believed there was nothing odd about the 42-year-old computer expert, whose light burned late into the night inside his creaking mansion. Yesterday, however, Meiwes appeared in court charged with killing - and then frying and eating - another man.

    In one of the most extraordinary trials in German criminal history, the self-confessed cannibal admitted that he had met a 43-year-old Berlin engineer, Bernd Brandes, after advertising on the internet, and had chopped him up and eaten him.



    The two questions that pop up in my mind.

    1. Is it ever okay to "willfully" eat human flesh? Why or why not?

    2. Assuming that Mr. Brandes enjoyed his last moments. Is he ethically qualified to make this determination of how he chose to end it? Would your answer change if he perpetrated the violent actions leading up to his death to himself?

    Plasticity of Human brain is amazing.. I think it is much more plastic  and stores / retrieves the information  in a split of second from its black box and there appears to be a jump in biological evolution w.r.t. evolution of human brain..

    Not sure if I wouldn't rather have a dolphin one though. Human ones haven't seemed to do much good.

    this is blasphemy, this is baseless.,This is an absolutely baseless and unacceptable belief because not even an atom falls outside the purview of Allah, the Creator of everything.  

    This has been clearly underscored in verse 19&20/93 of the Holy Quran in which Allah says: There is no one in the heavens and earth but that he comes to the Most Merciful as a servant. (Indeed) He has enumerated them and counted them a (full) counting.”

    "And His throne was established upon the waters." Surah 11:7

    Parallel to this is the hadith in Sahih Muslim, narrated by Jabir, that Satan places his throne on the waters from whence he dispatches his units [to carry out whispering missions]; thus, those closest to him, he stations nearest to him.

    Perhaps this hadith is why some excitable Muslims would speculate if the Bermuda Triangle isn't where Satan might physically be.

    In any case, Satan does not commit biddah when he apes the big guy by keeping nearer to the waters. And the not so dry irony here is that it's all started off with us on dry land with very fishy grandpas.

    1. Is it ever okay to "willfully" eat human flesh? Why or why not?


    At this risk of giving credit to the whole 'Atheists have no morals' accusation, I do think as long as there is fully informed consent, then it's up to them.

    BUT, and that is a big but, I don't think there can ever be full consent.  Maybe my assumption here, but I don't believe anyone would want to be eaten, first alive and then dead, unless they had some sort of mental condition, which would remove consent.  

    So for that reason I would say no, it's wrong.

    No, I don't think he was qualified to determine this sort of end.  It's so much more extreme than other forms of suicide, that it reeks of mental health issues.  But again, maybe he was fully sane...I just can't believe it.

    I am also not sure what you mean by the last question, do you mean if he cut parts off of himself, and then died, would it be ok then for someone to eat him?

    "that only 'Atheists are capable of doing such things NOT faith heads..."  But I am fairly certain that some sort of faith is behind this cannibalistic behavior of some un-evolved species   that physically appears in human form .

    And when you look at cannibalism, it seems to happen for two reasons.

    The needy one: eat what you can get or die.

    The religious one: Cannibalism is a ritual you use to take over the "mana" of the one you eat.

    Guess which one is the most common.

    The last question is basically a form of asking if someone can ethically commit suicide, I suppose. Then it re-asks the question of the ethicalness of eating human flesh, from the perspective of the "giver" of said flesh.

    If someone gives signed permission that their corpse may be eaten after they are dead then as gruesome as it is, this is none of our concerns.

    In terms of someone "consenting" to being eaten alive, I have to agree with Berbs.

    "Dolphins are evil. Sea otters are evil. Penguins are really, really evil.

    In fact, look up any animal in the encyclopedia. If you think it’s adorable, it’s probably evil. That’s the cynical attitude we were left with after reading this article from Slate, which methodically crushed our naive assumptions about the world’s cutest animals.

    Let’s start with dolphins. You probably think of the dolphin as a cheerful, harmless version of the shark.

    Actually, dolphins are vicious gang rapists who kill their own babies, along with the babies of other species, and occasionally try to have sex with human swimmers. They have even been known to use young sharks as volleyballs.

    Slate also dismantled the unjustifiably clean reputation of the sea otter. Male otters have developed a bad habit of humping and fatally wounding baby seals in their desperation to mate, sometimes continuing to have sex with the seals up to a week after killing them.



    Not that sex between consenting otters is much better. Males often kill females from their own species by biting their faces during sex.

    That said, these crimes pale in comparison to the atrocities committed by Adelie penguins. Male penguins mate with other males, injured females, lost chicks and corpses. The most desperate penguins even try to mate with the ground, Slate reports.

    In one scientific study, researchers set out a dead penguin which had been frozen in its mating posture. The males found this corpse “irresistible”.



    Then the scientists placed “just the frozen head of a the penguin” on a rock, just to see how far the male penguins were willing to go. They weren’t deterred.

    Brian Switek, who wrote the Slate article, was careful to stress that we shouldn’t judge animals by human standards.

    That’s a fair point. Even so, we’ll never look at penguins or dolphins the same way again."

    In speaking of cannibalism it may be worth remembering that this act very common indeed in the Western world. Every single communion service in a Roman Catholic church involved cannibalism when the Host is taken. Transubstantiation is an every day miracle. The wafer and the wine are not a metaphor for the body and blood of Christ. To a believer it is the literal body and blood of Christ, transformed by a miracle.

    The real question is, if God didn't mean us to be cannibals then why did he make us all out of meat?
