Here's a bit more evidence of blood sucking tyrants among the British royal family tree, so you better cancel that European vacation in case they start to backslide. According to author Dr. Richard Sugg, as early as the 18th Century the British royals consumed flesh among other parts of the human body. Dr. Sugg claims
the human body has been widely used as a therapeutic agent with the most popular treatments involving flesh, bone or blood.
"Whilst corpse medicine has sometimes been presented as a medieval therapy, it was at its height during the social and scientific revolutions of early-modern Britain. It survived well into the 18th century, and amongst the poor it lingered stubbornly on into the time of Queen Victoria." - British Royalty Dined On Human Flesh - Dailymail.co.uk
We're not just referring to Egyptian mummy dust here, but that of consumption of, please excuse me as my stomach's acting up at the moment, human fat, flesh, bone, blood, brains and skin. According to his research, Dr. Sugg says the cannibalism practice wasn't just limited to monarchs having been a full blown industry of medicine:
"Medicinal cannibalism used the formidable weight of European science, publishing, trade networks and educated theory. It survived well into the 18th century, and amongst the poor it lingered stubbornly on into the time of Queen Victoria. - British Royalty Dined On Human Flesh - Dailymail.co.uk
There was so much blood flowing from beheadings and other barbaric practices the poor in Europe also tried to use whatever resources they could to treat health maladies.
"Over in continental Europe, where the axe fell routinely on the necks of criminals, blood was the medicine of choice for many epileptics. In Denmark the young Hans Christian Andersen saw parents getting their sick child to drink blood at the scaffold. So popular was this treatment that hangmen routinely had their assistants catch the blood in cups as it spurted from the necks of dying felons." British Royalty Dined On Human Flesh - Dailymail.co.uk
As many already know, the Bible is full of references to "drinking Christ's blood". When I was a kid I never thought twice of this odd symbolism at Catholic church. Today I see it has far more meaning as a potential introduction of cannibalism and vampiring. Catholics' symbolic eating the flesh of Christ with the priest's wafer offering known as "communion" has also always struck me as odd. How bizarre it all seems especially now that I know cannibalism was widespread throughout history.
According to Dr. Sugg, the last recorded instance of this practice in Germany fell in 1865. Or is it? Don't the Chinese harvest organs having their little mobile execution vans around town enabling them to quickly expedite such items on the open market? See China Kills to Harvest Organs: MDs - Canada.com I wouldn't at all be surprised if these aforementioned practices aren't still in use today to also be implemented on a mass scale in the future by tyrannical evil governments.
