Lexilina: That's what we'd all like to think. However bravely she & others faced their fate, in REALITY, religion & cultural pressures aside, she WAS a human being, a CHILD, and one whom, almost certainly, felt deep fear & dread inside, naturally, not wishing to have to be sacrificed/killed, only wishing to be allowed to continue to live, given the choice.

I think there's a lot of nuance to it that maybe modern day people don't understand, but to these people they weren't just rituistically killing a child. They were sending her to a new life. Human sacrifice was seen as an honor for some, but even more so it was seen as a necessity. We were so much more vulnerable to the whims of nature, and since the gods were present in nature it was very important to appease them to ensure survival. We kind of take for granted how comfortable our lives are now

@RXI _ Conquering is not what makes one human. It is inclusion which makes us human. Conquering or the need for domination is due to a higher representation of the masculine. If there were more women leaders then the feminine will create a balance for the nature of the masculine. This is also one of the reasons we need to empower more women leaders and instead of replicating how men do things, should emphasize her own nature of inclusion. We really need this balance in the world. So no conquering is not the nature of human beings.

To clarify, this form of sacrifice was used to freeze-dry their god-leaders. This was the highest honour in their culture. They did this to their Kings and Leaders when they passed. Their bodies ,when frozen, were brought back to Incan cities to partake in political affairs and religious ceremonies in death. This 'victim' thought that she would become immortalised and claim a seat amongst her gods. This was more than likely willing.

Many religions are centered around dying for a god, Christianity is the only one centered on God dying for you. It is a completely and totally distinct religion where God is kind, forgiving, loves you, and is working everything together to the point He can walk in person with us again on a new earth that is without sin and shame. To explain, God and humans (Adam and eve) walked together in the garden of Eden at the beginning of the world, but since they sinned, and God and sin cannot exist together, we are separated from God unless we repent of our sins and accept Jesus as Lord of our lives (meaning we live to do His will, instead of doing what we want, which is the only way to find real meaning in life, and I and everyone in this world and probably you too, have tried to find meaning in everything else and have bren unable too.). All things leading to the point we walk together with God and the other ppl who loved Christ on that new earth without sin and shame.

They need to put her back. You are never supposed to touch the ancient ones. These archeologist take so many indigenous artifacts which without asking or consulting to the tribes. In many tribes, we have traditional and natural laws. You don’t take what doesn’t belong to you. you’ll pay for the consequences meaning spirit, and etc will follow you back or worst the gods will take back what is theirs. A lot of these archeologists don’t understand traditional stories or teachings or anything about indigenous culture. They don’t know what will happened.

One can’t imagine what it must feel like to be so honored, and ready to go. And then to be almost there and you realise your body is giving in, it hurts, its painful, unpleasant and terrifying. But you’re already so far. Do you think about home? About the people who you leave behind? About those who continue living a normal life, would you feel jealous? Or excited, looking forward to what’s to come; meeting the Gods and asking them to help those left behind. Will it be worth it? Would you start doubting? Can’t imagine.

Many religions are centered around dying for a god, Christianity is the only one centered on God dying for you. It is a completely and totally distinct religion where God is kind, forgiving, loves you, and is working everything together to the point He can walk in person with us again on a new earth that is without sin and shame. To explain, God and humans (Adam and eve) walked together in the garden of Eden at the beginning of the world, but since they sinned, and God and sin cannot exist together, we are separated from God unless we repent of our sins and accept Jesus as Lord of our lives (meaning we live to do His will, instead of doing what we want, which is the only way to find real meaning in life, and I and everyone in this world and probably you too, have tried to find meaning in everything else and have bren unable too.). All things leading to the point we walk together with God and the other ppl who loved Christ on that new earth without sin and shame.
