Author Topic: Why is consensual cannibalism illegal? Also would you eat someone?  (Read 4668 times)

Id eat someone
Its the same as eating chicken or something imo.

even if i was gonna starve to death and the situation called for it i highly doubt i could bring myself to do it

but again wanting to help someone kill themselves is a very questionable thing to say the least. if it was legal and I found out that someone I knew volunteered to do that I would be very wary of them
Is that just in this hypothetical situation where you can kill physically healthy people who consent, or do you have the same feeling regarding doctors who perform euthanasia on the terminally ill or severely physically impaired?

In my mind I would see a difference. Where the euthanasia practice is more noble in that you are helping someone who can't physically take their life.

For the former it would also depend on the means of killing. If it was a lethal injection with anaesthetics, as in euthanasia clinics then I wouldn't find a person disturbing for doing that, as they're not creating a mess or causing pain, and are presumably a trained medical professional.
But if it's just the case that with your consent someone can shoot you, suffocate you, cut your throat or break your neck, then it's wrong for someone to want to do that. That's simply pleasing someones bloodlust.


I would try human flesh, if it was donated willingly from a deceased person or amputation, and was of course safe to eat.

I wouldn't kill someone just to eat flesh or desecrate the body of an unwilling deceased person.

I would try it out of curiosity, but not with an intention to carry on eating it.

the difference is that doctors don't want to do it. they want to help, but I'm sure it's nearly universal that they would much rather find a different solution. euthanasia is their last choice, and if it was not for a feeling of duty to their patients, they probably wouldn't be willing to do it at all

only with barbecue sauce

Anesthesiology requires a lot of skill so you don't kill the patient. I don't think its that hard to inject a lethal dosage because you can never inject too much

is that a challenge



maybe it could be like a mental health therapist. see if the patient really wants to die and consent and the will and all that, and if so then pull the plug

pump guy full of morphine and kill him -> eat him -> get high from all the morphine

unless they were dying and has no definite possible way to get treatment in their state

pump guy full of bbq sauce instead it adds to the flavor
