Cannibalism Rears Ugly Head

Cannibalism has resurfaced in a big way. Here are three examples.

1)  Six roasted fetuses covered with gold for black magic rituals were found in a Bangkok hotel room, and the gruesome discovery led to the arrest of a British citizen Friday, Thai police said.

Chow Hok Kuen, a 28-year-old Briton of Taiwanese origin, faces charges of hiding and covering dead bodies and a jail term of up to a year, police said.

The arrest came after police were tipped off about a website advertising the sale of the fetuses. Police searched Chow's hotel room and found the fetuses packed in a box inside Chow's baggage, they said.

Chow said that he planned to sell fetuses in Taiwan and that one could be worth up to 200,000 Thai baht, or $6,300, police said. He told police that the black magic rituals with fetuses are believed to bring good fortune for business people.

2) Women in America start eating their placentas. They say it makes them feel better and stronger. They placentas can be put into capsules.

3)  In Africa, Africans are stalking albinos and killing them for their skin. The Africans feel eating an albino brings good luck. Certainly it is unbelievably savage for the albinos. Albinos are huddling together trying to survive.
