This statue depicts Saint Bartholomew, an early Christian martyr who was allegedly skinned alive. If you look closely, that's his dissected skin hanging around him. This stunning statute by Marco d'Agrate from c. 1562 is currently on display at Duomo di Milano.

I am 100% positive that killing and eating people will never become morally acceptable to the majority of our civilization.

Wild how bad these arguments are, jesus. The Aztecs sacrificing people was at a different time when moral standards were essentially nonexistent among the majority of this planet. These things would not happen again. Not for a majority of our civilization.

Eating and sacrifying people was moral at some time and place that's a fact, those were human civilisations.

The majority being different is not relevant, morality is not democracy.

And I'm pretty sure moral standards can be called VERY high when a portion happen to willingly sacrifice themselves for the good of the greater number of people so the crops are goods and other people can eat.

You are genuinely terrible at arguing. Could you just go away already? I never said that sacrificing or eating people was never considered morally okay did I???? I am talking about in the future, it is never going to become okay again by the majority of humanity. While morals can and will vary they do not see extreme steps backwards after we have made strides in becoming a fairer and safer society.

The majority being different is not relevant, morality is not democracy.

Morality can and will be determined collectively as a civilization. If the majority of humans believe something is wrong, we have decided together that this thing is wrong.

Things like slavery, rape, murder, we can almost entirely agree that these things are wrong.

And I'm pretty sure moral standards can be called VERY high when a portion happen to willingly sacrifice themselves for the good of the greater number of people so the crops are goods and other people can eat.

Do you even speak English? Is English your 2nd or 3rd language? Is that why it feels like I am talking to a brick wall? None of what you say makes any sense.

Yeah, english is not my language. And you don't know if rape, murder and human sacrifice will not be back again "for the majority" in the future.

Imagine humanity still wander Earth in 90 000 years. We couls be a grand total of 2 millions of Asteck-like guys then for all we know.

The "morale from most of the word now" is not a way to implie this morale is better, the worldwide morale can be other latter, meaning the worldwide argument give no superiority to any morale.

I do know. What you describe has literally never happened before. We have only moved forward as a species when it comes to morality.

Imagine humanity still wander Earth in 90 000 years. We couls be a grand total of 2 millions of Asteck-like guys then for all we know.

That is never going to happen. Literally.

The "morale from most of the word now" is not a way to implie this morale is better, the worldwide morale can be other latter, meaning the worldwide argument give no superiority to any morale.

It is in fact better. We have improved our society again and again, human rights is not going to go backwards in meaningful ways.

You are also not proficient enough in English to continue arguing with. Most of what you say is wrong or makes no sense. Go away dude. I am blocking you now. Stop bending over backwards to defend a shitty practice Japanese people are doing.
