Ingesting one's placenta, acceptable or not? - Page 3

corianderstem · 07-19-2007, 11:12 PM

What's the matter? Are we challenging your worldview? Maybe challenging your beliefs, since clearly, we're all just a bunch of heathens?

Edit: At the risk of being too knee-jerk, why are you alarmed, and why are you concerned?

I just don't understand why you care? Why would it cause you concern or alarm? Again, nobody's going to make you eat it!

(for the record, I've never eaten placenta, I've known people who have, I don't think it's that weird, but just not something I was interested in)

i spoke to my wife about this practice of placenta eating and she said it was common among the wiccan crowd.

we live in a troubled society.

Why does this make us a troubled society? I can think of 101 things you and "your crowd" do that make this a much more troublesome society than this harmless act.

I'm like Jules and pork on this one, I just don't dig on placenta, it shouldn't be some heinous act if someone does it, especially in the privacy of their own home.

How soon after you became an ex-philanderer were you morally pure enough to judge others and their actions that don't affect you or anyone else in any way (besides a small ick factor), dbs?

indra · 07-19-2007, 11:43 PM

I don't really care what anyone else ingests.

diamond · 07-19-2007, 11:45 PM

Diemen,

Try as you may you are not a woman, inwhich the last post was directed at.

That said have you heard of a spiritual concept called "the ripple effect"?

If not here's an interesting book for you.

So, when you post threads that make blatantly incorrect statements about homosexuality, only homosexuals can respond?

**Diemen** · 07-19-2007, 11:54 PM

And last I checked, neither are you, diamond. So how are you qualified to opine on this subject if I'm not?

unico · 07-20-2007, 12:13 AM

I can recommend some books on religious hypocrisy, would you like a list?

**Diemen** · 07-20-2007, 12:25 AM

Yes, I looked up the book - and it doesn't justify your position. The ripple effect basically says that your thoughts and actions can affect others in unseen ways. Eating their own placenta doesn't affect how these women treat others. Actually, no, that's wrong - according to some of these women, it does affect their treatment of others - in a positive way because they feel less depressed and better able to interact. So actually you should be happy for them, for they are causing more positive ripples if we're to believe your book.

But tell me, exactly how are you treating these other women when you link them to a troubled society?

diamond · 07-20-2007, 12:28 AM

I think it's a bit barbaric and God doesn't want us to eat our own bodies.

Just a gut feeling mine you, one that I do not care to debate.

So you want to criticize but not debate it? Somehow I'm not surprised.
