But it's still cannibalism, yeah? If someone consented to be eaten before they died or even wished for it, would you be OK with eating them?
This is unironically one of my favourite questions to ask new friends. I've gotten a variety of answers, but my own response has always been yes, if the person was healthy and had clearly consented.
In my opinion, cannibalism is bad for two main reasons, 1) it can be unsafe if the person was ill, the meat has spoiled, or if it's done too often (this has been studied in cannibalistic rituals) and 2) it's unethical if the person doesn't consent to it.
Eating animal meat is non consensual and there can be diseases in there too - many people have died from it. Just because it's more socially acceptable, I don't really see it as an ethically better decision.
I would 100% at least try my own home grown meat cells.
Damn, I love your response, even though I don't know of I agree! Are you Vegan?
I personally see it as No, because I see us humans as special. Speaking as an atheist, end of day, we are special as humans.
I eat meat, I try to limit it to the ethically harvested. Hunted, family farm grown, it even tastes the best, any concerns aside. But eating a person is WRONG, consent or no.
Why is it wrong though? And why/how are people special? You didn't provide any reasoning to either.
