Did you know that early Christians practiced cannibalism?

Question

It's true. I saw it on a program. they would draw lots and eat whoever got chosen by chance. or chosen by God as they saaw it. I'm not judging or anything, it's just an interesting historical fact that's not so well known..

Answer 1

Yummy!

Answer 2

Just because it was on "a program" doesn't mean it's true.

Even if the program called itself a "documentary," that doesn't mean it's true either.

After all, Michael Moore calls his films "documentaries" but they're full of so much bulls--t, it isn't funny.

The truth is, there are people out there who have a vested interest in making Christians and Christianity look as bad as possible -- because Christianity teaches things that go against their beliefs and lifestyles, so they need to discredit it.

My hunch is that this "program" you saw was produced by such people.

Answer 3

It's also a well known fact that ancient people were vegetarean, and they sacrificed animals, not ate them. You must mean the ones that were destroyed by the flood.
Any religion after Christ's time on earth, were subject to the Romans Rule, as in the Roman Catholic church. All others, did not worship God, but small g gods. This would indicate devil worship or idol worship. The Egyptians had many gods and goddesses. Greeks too, as in Greek mythology.
The Romans also held public destruction of Christians, by feeding them to the Lions.

Answer 4

well, I have seen real dinosaurs in a forest on a TV program. Amazingly, some modern guys were taking pictures and talking in front of the camera not very far from the giant animals......
Christianity isn't that ancient as one might think. If you know or have heard about the Roman empire and Ceasar; you should remind yourself that cannibalism is practiced by the uncivilized society/people. You should read the Bible if you want to know the history of the true Christians...

Answer 5

I believe you saw something on a TV Program, but it's not true that Christians practiced cannibalism.

The common people of Rome believed rumors about Christians. Some thought Christians practiced cannibalism because the sacrament of the Eucharist called for believers to symbolically eat the flesh and blood of Christ.

Answer 6

during the Hebrew insurrection against Rome and the Roman siege of Jerusalem, there are comments of ravenous Jewish defenders ingesting the ineffective bodies of human beings that died. no longer an area of any ritual or religious prepare, purely a survival mechanism. same as a results of fact the Donner social gathering in American historic previous or the soccer gamers that crashed in the Andes. so some distance as worshiping Donkeys, on no account heard that one in any respect.

Answer 7

i dont believe that you have your facts straight. what is your source. Christ did say that the bread was his body and the wine was his blood (figuratively) and that unless we eat his flesh and drink his blood we have no part with him; meaning that we should partake in the Lords Supper as a representation and rememberance of him.

Answer 8

Give us your source (i.e. the name of the program). Otherwise, if you hate a religion then just say so in plain freedom of speech words instead of diluting the minds of the gullible and young with nonsense and confusion.

Answer 9

Did you know that Catholics eat the flesh and drink the blood of a human being every time they take communion?

Answer 10

What program, what channel, what fact??

How do you know the source is reliable???

Answer 11

Absolutely untrue. The early Christians were Jews and found cannibalism abhorrant.

Please give us a link to a reputable source?
