| Indian Documentary Exposes Cannibalism Among Secret Hindu Sect POSTED: 12:17 pm EDT October 27, 2005 BOMBAY, India -- A new Indian documentary focuses on a secretive sect of Hindu ascetics who eat corpses in the belief that ingesting dead flesh will make them ageless and give them supernatural powers. "Feeding on the Dead," a 10-minute documentary, delves into the little-known world of the Aghori sect, whose holymen pluck dead bodies from the Ganges River in northern India. While the sect has been written about, they've rarely been filmed performing rituals. The director of the documentary said it took him more than three months to gain the trust of an Aghori and persuade him to be filmed while performing a cannibalistic ritual. Hindus generally cremate the dead, but bodies are sometimes ceremonially disposed of in the Ganges, and the Aghori find the corpses they need in the river.  SD | ||||||||

Rep Power: 7  | Oh yuk! So the guy dies for whatever reason and they throw him in the river (which probably ranks right down there with a cesspool anyway), and he floats around for a few days and then these nuts drag this nasty thing that's been floating in this nasty water out and eat it?! As if the body that's been floating around for a few days isnt bad enough, by the time it's been soaked in sewage, it's probably full of disease. What is the leading cause of death over there? Bacterial infection? YUK! | ||||||||

And for the record.....Hindus don't eat the flesh of Cloven Hooved animals...Some (albeit not all) will eat Chicken and fish, so by that definition, I would say Human's not out of the range of meat that they could eat.  __________________ You can't wield supreme executive power just because some watery tart threw a sword at you - Look, if I went 'round saying I was an Emperor, just because some moistened bint had lobbed a scimitar at me, they'd put me away!  | ||||||||

This weekend, I'm requesting that you go out and look at the feet of 50 cows and 20 bulls. Please bring us back a written report complete with drawings as to what cloven hooves look like. Hint: horses DO NOT have them. | |||||||||
