---------------- GL responds: If cannibalism causes "the instinctive disgust you feel in your stomach", then certainly all human cultures all over the world and all through history should feel the same "INSTINCTIVE disgust you feel in your stomach" about cannibalism. And perhaps this innate "instinct" should be most apparent in isolated societies not influenced / instructed by some 'outside thinking'. Unless one is postulating that "human instincts" are different in different parts of the world and during different time periods based on some genetic / evolutionary characteristics. In the debate, I agree that the topic kept changing between morality, religion and Christianity. The was specially visible in the speaker that was losing the debating point, and elected to fudge and change the topic. Kind Regards, GL
