Cause if I was in a situation where I had to choose between eating the fat guy or dying I want to know if eating the fat guy is ok.

Cannibalism is reported in the Bible during the siege of Samaria. (2 Kings 6:25-30)
Cannibalism has one meaning: The practice of eating the flesh of your own kind.
Jesus Christ could not have intended for us to eat His Flesh and Blood, because that would be cannibalism.

Thats a really good question believe it or not. Most Christians believe that God doesn't care what you eat. So if the fat guy is already dead, chow down. I personally think that people, monkeys, pigs, mice, snakes, dogs, do not make for good eating. It goes along with leviticus, and I believe it applies to Christians today because it just a healthy thing to do, and after all, our bodies are His temple.

There is absolutely nothing at all wrong with cannibalism as long as the person was not killed for that purpose.
If you are both stranded on a desert island and he dies, then, by all means, go ahead and eat him.
A caring God would value preserving your life more than he would preserving a corpse that will be eaten by insects and bacteria within days anyway.

O.K., so you know the 10 Commandments says "thou shalt not kill", first clue. Secondly in Leviticus 11:2-47 lists those things that are clean or unclean in relation to food. Those things that are found dead are unclean....so if the guy dies, he's dead and unclean. But! Jesus died for our sins and if the guy dies and you eat him to survive, I'm sure that you would be forgiven since the Lord does not go back on His word.

This is a very sick question, and shows a total lack of respect for the Bible or human life. God gives us brains to use. Perhaps if you believed in God and you ended up in this terrible situation, you would pray and God would provide food for you, instead of eating a person. The fat guy is a human being just like you, that is the problem with people today, no respect for others, just self.

Ok first of all what does eating someone result in...that person dieing...so basically you are murdering him...in the Ten Commandments the sixth commandment states "you shall not murder" So overall if you eat the fat guy instead of dieing you are morally wrong and worst of all breaking the commandment...(and i dont know if it is like this in every bible but at the back mine has the ten commandments....so technically it is in the bible)

Have you ever heard of the commandment, "Do not murder"?
We are to "do unto others as we would have done to ourselves". This means that you should consider "would I like to be eaten?" and if the answer is no, then don't eat the other guy.
In the New Testament it says we are do regard others are more important than ourselves, so if you follow this Biblical standard you ought to consider the other man's life more worthy of saving and offer to be the meal yourself.
If you are really wrorried about this you would dust off your own Bible and do a little reading.

the forbidding of eating your totum is frowned on scince thier circumstances of thier creation
animals have a totamic dreaming ,eating your own is canabalistic,
you dont have to kill the poor fat dude
,he wouldnt be cosha ,we can go for 200 or more days eating but a single seed per day ,its in not just eating the seed but seeing you are eating all the seeds that seed would have grown
to a pious person the guilt is filling enough ,
john subsisted of grasshoppers [eat one of them you know you have killed one that god said to live] ,and honey [doesnt even have living bacteria in it ]

It depends on the situation. When it comes to survival, people normally do not care about what is written in the book.
Sometimes, humans just react to the situation. The mind is really difficult to understand.

You better hope that fat guy is not conscious when you attempt to do that, cause I am sure he will be envisioning you as a roast girl with an apple in your mouth, long before you even think about snacking on his nuts.
