Hindus to end human sacrifice practice
http://www.dailytimes.com.pk/default.asp?page=story_25-6-2003_pg4_18

GUWAHATI: Hundreds of Hindu monks pledged Tuesday to fight ancient barbaric rituals of human sacrifices at temples in India where the grisly practice continues.

“A very miniscule cult still believes that to achieve supernatural magical powers one needs to sacrifice a child at the altar,” Biswajit Giri, a 45-year-old Hindu mystic, told AFP.

“The practice of human sacrifice ... has not died down completely and is being carried out in many select temples secretly.”

*************************************************************

Imagine that. Some people condemn the punishment of a society with the death penalty 4,000 years ago for crimes committed against them, but choose to ignore the ritual human sacrifice of children practiced as recently as a few years ago.

It looks like child slaughter IS in keeping with Hinduism in some way, shape, or form. A simple google search will bring up more results about it than the average person can stomach.

Busted.....

Crimes committed against whom? What crimes did children and infants (and donkeys and horses) commit, to deserve ritual slaughter, as per 1 Samuel 15: 3?

You repeatedly avoid answering this. Does it trouble you so much?
