The same logical arguments expressed to support homosexuality can also be used to support cannibalism.

Neither, I can safely say, have any appeal to me, nor do I even begin to understand why one would engage in or even comprehend either activity.

25 years before the fall of the Berlin Wall, nobody anticipated the demise of the Soviet Block from within. 25 years ago nobody imagined homosexuality would be so publicly tolerated. IMHO, cannibalism isn't that far of a stretch for churches which condone and elect gay bishops in about 25 years.

Scary thing is YOUR RIGHT!!!

The fava beans were overcooked and the chianti, ... well, it was a knockoff.

The reluctant cannibal. by Flanders & Swann, circa 1956.

The Reluctant Cannibal

1957 recording introduction:

Sorry about the language. It is justified, I think, don't you? We thought that after that we ought to take you somewhere warmer, to the Tropics, a song which we have entitled by way of compliment to the management: The Reluctant Cannibal

Seated one day at the Tom-tom,
I heard a welcome shout from the kitchens:
Come and get it!
Roast leg of insurance salesman.
A chorus of 'yum's ran round the table.
Yum, yum, yum, yum, yum....
Except for Junior, who pushed away his shell,
Got up from his log, and said
'I don't want any part of it'.
What? Why not?
I don't eat people,
Eh?
I won't eat people,
Huh?
I don't eat people,
I must be going deaf.
Eating people is wrong.
It's wrong?
Don't eat people,
Have you gone clean out of your mind?
I won't eat people,
What's the matter with the lad?
Don't eat people,
He keeps on repeating,
Eating people is bad.

But people have always eaten people,
What else is there to eat?
If the Jou-Jou had meant us not to eat people,
He wouldn't have made us of meat.
Don't eat people,
Oh no, not again.
I won't eat people,
All the day long,
Don't eat people,
He keeps on repeating,
Eating people is wrong.

Well, I've never heard of a more ridiculous idea in all my born days. To think that a son of mine should grow up to be a sissy... Me, chief assistant to the assistant chief. I suppose you realise, son, that if this gets around we may never get self-government.
I won't eat people!
Have you been talking to one of your Mothers again? You're not getting to be one of these cranks that thinks that eating people is cruel, are you, you see a man sitting in a pot and think he's suffering? Oh, it's not like that at all. Why, he's just had an invigorating chase through the forest. He's sitting there in the nice warm water, with all the carrots and dumplings and things, he's thinking 'Oh, the pleasure and happiness I'm going to give to a whole heap of people', that man in the pot there, he enjoys it.
Eating people is wrong!
Look, son, I admine your sincerity, always be sincere, whether you mean it or not. You're young, when you're young, you think you can change the whole world overnight, even eating people, I know, I've been young myself. Take it from your old dad, you've just got to learn to take the world as it is.
I won't let another man pass my lips!
I know why you say 'Don't eat people', because you are a coward, Francis, that's your trouble, yes, a yellow-livered coward. You wouldn't mind eating people if you weren't afraid of ending up in the pot yourself. Go on like this and you're liable to get me into hot water.

I won't eat people!
That's enough!
I don't eat people!
I don't want to....
Eating people is wrong!
Communist!
Going around saying 'don't eat people, that's the way to make people hate you!
We always have eaten people, always will eat people, you can't change human nature.I won't eat people!
I don't eat people!
I won't eat people!
I don't eat people!
I won't eat people!
I don't eat people!
I won't eat people!
I don't eat people!
It must be someone he ate.
Eating people is out!
I give up. You used to be a regular anthropophagi. If this crazy idealistic idea of your was to catch on, I just don't know where we would all be. It would just about ruin our entire internal economy. Fortunately, I suppose it catching on isn't very likely. Why, you might just as well go around saying 'don't fight people', for example?Don't fight people? Ha Ha!
Oh, that's my boy.
Ridiculous!

The same logical arguments expressed to support homosexuality can also be used to support cannibalism.

These two guys are also homosexuals, just like Jeffrey Dahmer the American cannibal was a homosexual. Something about homosexuals seems to make them more inclined to do this kind of thing or do those amputations for the fun of it.
