As climate alarmists assure us that this time the world really will end this time if we don’t stop eating meat, some psychologists are saying we need to reconsider eating human flesh.

We need to drop the taboo around cannibalism apparently and this is not just the position of infamous serial killer Jeffery Dahmer, who would eat his victims’ brains and other body parts, noted philosophers such as William Irvine are also on the bandwagon.

Irvine has suggested that we could apply the same rationale we use to kill and eat cows, the fact they are incapable of rational thought, could also be applied to human babies.

Human babies are already dismembered alive in their mother’s womb’s by the tens of millions every year, so why not eat them some progressives have asked.

Irvine is not seriously advocating eating human babies but is using the analogy to highlight the highlight the bias of current ethical thinking when considering cannibalism, the idea of which is met by most with utter revulsion.
