If Cannibalism/Gore Era would come, wow imagine the world with edible humans served in restaurants and some butchered at birth for food, and the like. _________________

...humans can be bad, but i don't think that such a thing would happen; probably if society were to fail (breakdown), then i think people would start to eat each other (since there are so many of us becoming hungry at once) but i don't think that people would be serving human meat in restaurants knowingly...

not saying the possibility doesn't exist, just it seems highly unlikely to me oo;
Rest assured, I could say that its quite absolute that cannibalism would not go commercial. In economic sense, it has high level of negative externalities and definitely not socially desirable.
One of the factors that restricting could be because of human intelligence. The ability to visualize and imagine prevents us from such acts. For example, even before starting on your first meal on human, people will see "food" as a living human. Plus, rational people worry on how society see them as.
Thus, its even made possible that even on the verge of death due to hunger, where people's desperation level is way beyond their limits, people do not resort to cannibalism.
Cannibals are just too rare. The reasons that there still reports on them is because they are newsworthy.

Have you heard of the Milgram Experiments? Check Wikipedia...
They found that approximately 65% of the worlds population who are ordered to shock a person until death will in fact follow through and kill that person.
I never thought that such a high percent of people would actually kill because they were ordered to.
I'm not sure what you mean by 'sin', but according to me cannibalism is a valid option if it means saving your life.
Once a human is dead it's just meat, and if it meant the difference between survival and death i believe there is nothing wrong with resorting to cannibalism. I would see it as a last resort, obviously, but i wouldn't hesitate for long if i thought that was my only option.
In any other case i believe cannibalism should be avoided, not because i believe the dead human would care, but because of living relatives who would most likely take great offence (bad word). _________________ [IMG:451:100:77306d222f]http://i148.photobucket.com/albums/s22/Insane_-/sdfghjk-1.jpg[/img:77306d222f]

You wouldn't hesitate for long if it was your only option? So in other words once you have no other option you would seek human flesh, right? Sounds like eating another person to you is fairly easy when compared to me.
For me, I'd hesitate even if I'm starving AND I see no other source of food, but I'd probably give in to cannibalism once I really, REALLY need to eat.
And about relatives taking great offence, I'd be surprised if NOBODY took great offence, or at least felt disgusted, that you ate another person Oo;;
Society's opinion (not just a small group of people like relatives of the deceased) is what matters most if you don't believe in a religion.

Correct, if eating human flesh is the only way to live then yes i would eat it. Of course, waiting is an option, which maybe wasn't clear. I wouldn't start munching on other humans as soon as the other food was finished, the situation i was talking about is Cannibalism or Death, not cannibalism or hunger. _________________ [IMG:451:100:77306d222f]http://i148.photobucket.com/albums/s22/Insane_-/sdfghjk-1.jpg[/img:77306d222f]

Ah ok, it wasn't clear, but now it is xD

I wouldn't be offended. ^^
I'm with GC on this.
(If I may use this nick.)
Ok then I'm surprised now xD
Then, let me rephrase it then; I think that the majority of people would take offence, or at least feel disgusted, that you ate another person ><;
Though I phrase this without proof, I have faith that most of humanity does not take eating another person lightly.
We should make a poll or something...
"Would you feel offended if you saw a man/woman eat another person?"
I mean, I would eat another person if I really needed to eat, and there was nothing else to eat, but I would feel displeased with myself that I had to eat my own kind.

Well... depending on what you eat and what religion you practise i suppose. For me, I'll associate it as a sin if you eat another person even if it is desperate or 'cant be help' situations. _________________ [img:800:198:5c85a10b1b]http://img146.imageshack.us/img146/1347/feenasighk3.jpg[/img:5c85a10b1b]

It's the same for me too.
It's a sin in my religion, but I will sin if it will save me, though I guess that isn't very good, in a religious way.
Animals as a rule don't eat human flesh... >.< In fact, most animals tend to leave it the hell alone unless there's nothing else around.
No animals naturally hunt humans.
Humans taste bad to other humans, and the smell of burning flesh is ungodly. (no, not ungodly as in sin, ungodly as in stinks all to hell and makes you want to gag it stinks so bad)
cannibalism in some cultures is done for religious reason. I highly doubt they think of it as sin. They also say it's an acquired taste and I have to agree... Taste like chicken? no... not exactly, but there's not really any way to describe it either.
In survival situations, is it wrong? well... hell... survival.. I mean.. do whatever it takes, right?

That's about as far from how I heard it as you can get. The reason we have to kill animals that have tasted human flesh is because we taste better than anything else to them, and are easier to catch than your average gazelle. Animals don't naturally hunt humans because we're strange and scary to them. An animal that has become accustomed to humans and has tasted human flesh will hunt humans almost exclusively. _________________ The pen is mightier than the sword

..and no to mention humans are weaker than most animals that hunt and without any means to protect oursevles we would probaby be wiped out.
