Darn those Spaniards for introducing that vile Christianity and suppressing this wonderful traditional culture.

Hmmmm - some 2000 years ago, when ancient Mexicans were cutting off heads,it was "horrifically gory". Today, when Islamist terrorists do it, it's justified because everyone hates Bush.

There is also a thread about "headless men" found in a Roman cemetery in York.
What is this, headless Saturday?

The rededication of the Great Temple of Tenochtitlan in 1487 was said to have marked by the slaughter of 20,000 or even as many as 80,000 victims. The most common form of sacrifice was the cutting out of the beating heart from the still-living body.
As a sensitive, multiculti Seinfeld would add, "...uh, not that there's anything wrong with that..."

The master-planned city-state collapsed around 700 A.D., an event as mysterious as its formation. The "mystery" was probably something rather simple: over-population, famine, perhaps even flood or drought.
Time to get outta Dodge.
The founding was a mystery? I (underlined) don't think so. Or rather it was no more of a mystery than the founding of many places. Why would anyone want to form cities in the artic circle or insect-infested swamps or known barren deserts?

I am convinced there were certain societies where pedophiles and serial killers took over the cultural power apparatus.
They convinced the ordinary peasants they were an elite who had special knowledge and access to mysteries.
They should be allowed to kill at will. The peasants bowed and said Yes Master.
Mesopotamian elite sacrificed infants; they were thrown into the fire. Priests claimed knowledge of astrological mysteries.
Celts took heads, strangled and threw threw young women into bogs; claimed special astral knowledge.
All 'civilized' Amerindian societies had dominate priesthoods who absolutely wallowed in human sacrifice.
Cultures of death; all controlled by special elites.

What is the news here?
Various pre-Spanish cultures were notorious for
this sort of thing.
Oh, it's Reuters.
Anything to avoid discussing the Air America scandal,
I guess.

Back in the late 80's, while visiting Chichen Itza, the guide showed us a pit - that used to be some sort of lake or basin (??), I think - and said it was believed to have been the site where "virgins" were sacrificed.
He then said, however, that all the remains recovered were those of young boys. So, the theory is, the rulers were keeping the young women for themselves, but dressing up young boys and pretending to sacrifice the girls by throwing the boys into the pit.
Oh, and then there was that sport - the one where the loser lost his life. Can't remember what that one was called.

special astral knowledge. All 'civilized' Amerindian societies had dominate priesthoods who absolutely wallowed in human sacrifice. Cultures of death; all controlled by special elites. Who are the new elites? Those with special genetic knowledge. Life is not really all that special if one can abort at will, clone at will and justify the use of any human life for genetic research. Let's bow down to the masters of genetic science who seek to create a Kantian super race. Let's all sacrifice ourselves to the greater good.
