There are moral issues, of course, but maybe it's not as insane as it sounds. Eating infants would be effective in combating world hunger and overpopulation. What do you think about this idea?

Let me guess: You're not suggesting we rich white westerners eat aour babies, are you? Just the underprivileged poor in the third world wehere there are so many of them and they're so hungry. The moral issues are not a sidebar, they are the totality of the answer to this inane question. And yes, that was inane, not insane. Lash

Then you have completely misunderstood my point, which was a highly sarcastic attack on what I perceive as the opening poster's underlying attitudes, not mine. Lash

That question doesn't even deserve an answer.

I think a person would have to be a little warped to even ask a question like that.It was at the least in bad taste.

Johnathon Swift came up with this idea as a solution to the Irish overpopulation in the 17th century. I don't think that he was being serious, but you never know....

No, it's not a good question, it's a morally bankrupt question. Lash

I don't think I would be able to stomach it. People do eat placentas, though. I wouldn't want to be the one to have to cook it. It's a scary idea. I see your point, it's well, practical, but scary!
