>>9031766most people developed that taboo. it's a good taboo, because >diseases >protection from being hunted >cooperation norms.
but there's nothing objectively wrong with it.
lots of people have surplus people. the euros had massive wars, and they had famine and disease when they didn't have enough war. before their medieval population explosion, the euros used POW and peasant sacrifices. the aztecs used adult sacrifice, the peruvians used child sacrifice. the chinese and egyptians sacrificed servants. the iriquois, polynesians, and africans used cannibalism. the hebrews, phonecians, and other mediterranean peoples used child sacrifice until they realized the benefits of banning it.
what do you have to say besides reporting your personal taboos? if you take a national/tribal view to defining groups, every group evolved from savagery to loose cooperation in the last few thousand years, and to close cooperation in the last few centuries. I don't think there are any exceptions. finally recording some of this stuff with German woodcuts and Jesuit diaries probably really helped Europe make that final leap first.
