Good but too much focus on sacrifice. Greeks made human sacrifice but do we ever hear about it? Course not.

@Hopeinhumanity Punish and sacrifice is not same.Today criminals are punished to be in jail for murders,ruberies selling drugs but they are not sacrificed.Its same as then but different situation(religion involved)anyway niether the sacrifices niether the punishments were good thing

[Hopeinhumanity]

@aimedbm By punish you mean sacrificed. Christianity deemed people committing witchcraft ( likely paganism) to be doing the work of the Devil. For the sake of God's commandments and the kingdom of heaven witches had to be sacrificed. Lasting up until the 18th Century. Fictional History portrays non European ancients as barbarians while ignoring the barbaric acts of the Europeans through fancy language; history is written by the winners.

@Hopeinhumanity Those burnings werent sacrifices for the gods.Those were people that were objected as ereses or better said witches and punished with burning

[Hopeinhumanity]

@aimedbm Umm.. burning at the cross? If you’re burning to make the pie in the sky whole or removing a heart to make the sun do something what’s the difference.

@iamthebest91 Greeks and other Europeans havent practiced human sacrifice......but animal sacrifice yes while they were pagans but in christianity animal sacrifice was never practiced

[aimedbm]

@leelemonse The europeans didnt do human sacrifice thats understatement but however to make human sacrifice in 16 century and to dont know about wheel is a job of the savages

[leelemonse]

@iamthebest91 I would like to inform you that the little knowledge left that we have of the Mayans is there pyramids and stone workings used for human sacrifice. Try writing a paper on the Mayans without having human sacrifice as a large topic. Yes the Greeks and many other classical worlds did this as well but we know a lot more of them then we do of the Mayans. I do not mean this in any way to be rude or offensive I only wanted you to understand why they did this.

Overpopulation could be something to do with this too!
