Let's see; they believed in catastrophic climate change and post-birth abortions infanticide.
They were Progressive Democrats.

Globull warming!

OK, we are nearing peak idiocy. Now "climate change" causes mass child sacrifices.

So, they can find 140 skeletons from before Columbus arrived, but they never find any skeletons from the alleged 100 million deaths caused by European diseases and warfare AFTER Columbus arrived?

While the reasoning behind the gruesome mass murder of the boys and girls — who were only between the ages of 5 and 14 — cannot be definitively determined, the researchers have up and decided the act was done out of desperation in response to a disastrous climatic event: El Niño.

[MadMax, the Grinning Reaper]

Blame the bad weather on TRUMP!

Damned. It was the Chimu people who carried out the sacrificial massacre.

There goes my fortune. I was going to blame it on the old “bad” Incas and sell “MIGA” hats (Make Incas Great Again). Never mind!

Too bad Freud came along so late in the game. The idea of unconscious motivation is completely unknown even to many people today. And so is Malthus.

All of these “religious sacrifices” were to get rid of extraneous population.

[a fool in paradise]

Libs are about ready to suggest this again.

[jimfree]

Hmmm. Believing that a government could control climate and government sanction of child-killing. Everything old is new again.

[SkyDancer]

And that civilization is gone; societies that murder children will disappear.

[moovova]

Well, apparently, it’s not working this time either.

The world is ending in 12 years and the Left can’t kill children fast enough.

[Verginius Rufus]

I think a long time ago someone "found" a Phoenician inscription in Brazil (as fake as the Kensington runestone in Minnesota and Drake's plate in California). In theory the Phoenicians could have made it to the New World.

So this may be evidence that they actually did so--they even made it all the way to the west coast of South America and taught the natives the Phoenician/Canaanite ritual of child sacrifice.

How the hell do we know if this theory is even true? Sure, the ancients practiced ritual sacrifice/executions to appease their gods (or punish rivals) but where’s the evidence they believed in man-made climate change? Or that they thought sacrificing children would somehow prevent climate change, which, btw, is a recently-invented concept?
Sounds suspiciously like more PC propaganda to prepare us for their plans.
