89:5.2 Early man was a [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cannibalism cannibal]; he enjoyed [[human]] [[flesh]], and therefore he offered it as a [[food]] gift to the spirits and his primitive [[gods]]. Since [[ghost]] spirits were merely [[modified]] men, and since [[food]] was man's greatest need, then food must likewise be a spirit's greatest need.

The red men, especially in [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maya_civilization#Religion Central America], were cannibals. It was once a general [[practice]] for primitive [[mothers]] to kill and eat their own [[children]] in order to renew the [[strength]] lost in childbearing, and in [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Queensland Queensland] the first child is still frequently thus killed and devoured. In recent times [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cannibalism cannibalism] has been deliberately resorted to by many African tribes as a [[war]] measure, a sort of frightfulness with which to [[terrorize]] their [[neighbors]].

89:5.5 Some [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cannibalism cannibalism] resulted from the [[degeneration]] of once superior stocks, but it was mostly prevalent among the [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_64 evolutionary races]. Man-eating came on at a time when men [[experienced]] [[intense]] and bitter [[emotions]] regarding their enemies. Eating human flesh became part of a [[solemn]] [[ceremony]] of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Revenge revenge]; it was believed that an enemy's [[ghost]] could, in this way, be destroyed or fused with that of the eater. It was once a widespread [[belief]] that wizards [[attained]] their [[powers]] by eating human flesh.

89:5.6 Certain groups of man-eaters would consume only members of their own [[tribes]], a pseudospiritual inbreeding which was supposed to accentuate [[tribal]] [[solidarity]]. But they also ate enemies for [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Revenge revenge] with the [[idea]] of appropriating their [[strength]]. It was considered an [[honor]] to the [[soul]] of a friend or fellow tribesman if his [[body]] were eaten, while it was no more than just punishment to an enemy thus to devour him. The [[savage]] [[mind]] made no pretensions to being [[consistent]].

89:5.16 Finally [[animal]] substitutes came into general use for [[sacrificial]] [[purposes]], and even among the more backward [[tribes]] dog-eating greatly reduced man-eating. The dog was the first [[domesticated]] [[animal]] and was held in high [[esteem]] both as such and as [[food]].
