Sometimes we at PC towers wonder what the world is coming to. In India, the police are looking for the villagers who killed a seven-year-old girl in a case of tribal sacrifice. The little girl, Lalita Tanti, was apparently kidnapped from her school and her body was found two days later.
The police in Chhattisgarh state said that the sacrifice was carried out to ensure a bumper crop. According to reports there are many cases of human sacrifice thought to be carried out in the tribal belt of eastern and central India, in Jharkhand, Orissa, Chhattisgarh and parts of Andhra Pradesh bordering Chhattisgarh.
Last time we discussed this subject a rather lively debate ensued, but its hard to ignore the fact that in the 21st century, and in an age of modern media communications, in a country that's claiming to be one of the coming centuries next 'social and economic giants', there are people so backward that they murder little children to appease their gods .... if this (and Chinese imperialism), is what is to replace western civilisation in the coming century, then god(s) help us all.
