LOL! I had to read that sentence about 3 times before I understood what it meant, too.

How about this one?

"Herr Meiwes emphasised yesterday that he had no interest — nor sexual pleasure — in killing his victim; he merely wanted to eat him."

Hey, I don't want to hurt you, I just want to have you for lunch.

[U S Army EOD]

Sure was because he would have been hungry again in 30 mins.

[grimalkin]

Ugh. Love life or love death... it's obvious which side these two were on.

[William Terrell]

Herr Brandes urges Herr Meiwes to slice off the organ. The knife is too blunt. The camera is switched off until Herr Meiwes returns with a sharper instrument; the victim seems to be saying: “Get rid of it.”

Feminist influence must be heavy in Germany.

We need to ban knives.

and teeth.

[SerpentDove]

I'll probably have nightmares as it is.

Can you imagine being that given over to darkness?

Shudder.

[SerpentDove]

Could have had a nice rump-roast.

If anyone has any doubts that we are living in the very last days, then this should dispel those doubts. Heavenly father, please forgive them.

[Billthedrill]

I mean, how many of us haven't found ourselves in this kind of situation?

I never have. Not even once. I keep my knives properly sharp, thank you.

[xm177e2]

Just for the sake of clarity, it was more than just the tip off.

LOL! I mean, I'm really cracking up here.

“It wasn’t murder; it was a mercy killing,”

The same can be said when they throw the switch on this guy.

The source of American optimism is a faulty view of our past, to which we believe we will someday be able to return.

But once you take a real, honest look at the past, you'll see it was worse than the present. Much worse, in terms of serial killers.

Before, serial killers didn't make the news quite so much because their deeds were hushed up by frightened people, and the extent of their murders were often unknown. A few years back, a South American man turned himself in to the police for the rapes and murders or over 200 boys. The country he was in just didn't have the ability to track missing children, so they had no idea what he had done until he turned himself in. Serial killers have existed since time immemorial.

Where do you think all of the vampire/werewolf/witch legends come from? That is how primiitive people attempted to explain serial killers. This sort of thing has always been with us. There is no reason to believe that this crime is especially bad compared to anything that happened in the past.

Two consenting adults - nobody's business but their own.....

Sorry. Plenty of doubts still.

There have been more wicked things than this happening, for the entire 1900+ years that folks like you have been warning us that the Second Coming is just around the corner.

I think that apocalyptic millenialism is a form of narcissism and pridefulness, a belief that these must be the last days because I am here to see them-- and therefore a sin.

No man knows the hour. Certainly not you.
