Like if you were trapped on a mountain and they'd already kicked the bucket.

Oh, and to make it spiritual, would your God approve?

If it was cold, like in the snow...YES. But if we are in a jungle or somewhere hot , then No. The body would start to decompose to fast and would make me sick.

I guess I would under the right circumstances. I would draw the line at eating a family member. If The person was frozen like in the movie Alive or I could cook the flesh then I guess it would be necessary if I wanted to survive. No one can judge this. For example, if you have a young child and you need to get back to them, because they would be orphaned otherwise, than you need to do what you need to do. It really is that simple. It would gross me out but I suppose if I were starving to death the fact that it is gross would be a lot less present in my mind than the fact that I had hours to live.

Hmmmmm only the situation could prove that - people may go to extreme lengths to survive, I suppose some people would even eat parts of themselves if there was no one else around! But if I was in a plane crash in the mountains, I would probably just go on the plane and get all those peanuts they offer :)

If I knew I would die anyway, then no, if I could help it. If I only needed to survive for like another week or something to be rescued etc., then I would eat the person, if there was no other food.

1) Yes, though it would be an absolutely last choice.
2) I don't know if "approve" would be the right word, but my Gods wouldn't DISapprove, if they were already dead. If I had to kill them, then no, probably not.

Survival of the fittest right?? I definetly would. I'd probably be real screwed up in the head for a long time afterwards, if i lived. They did it in Alive.

It's a question one could only answer if he were starving. Would God approve? He probably wouldn't condemn it.

No I don't eat meat so I'd probably be one of the first to die ---- didn't that happen in South America ? -- A Uruguayan rugby team whose plane crashed in the Andes -- they resorted to eating the dead bodies --- I remember reading the book I think it was called ALIVE .....

There have been cases of such things happening. It is usually counted as a horror but I guess whatever it takes to survive is justifiable.

If my survival depended upon it I likely would. I don't want to think I would allow myself to die.
