Yes, I read Hislop's "The Two Babylons" in the 1970s. Still have it. I have a PDF of "The Curse of Canaan", but I haven't read it yet.
I found Hislop's extrapolation of Babylonian rites and religion extending through history to manifest in current religion and culture to be a bit far fetched. He seemed to believe there was no other religion or culture that would compete with it for prominence. He was cherry picking his evidence and found some modern day counterparts that seemed to correspond with the archetypes he identified.
He even sourced the word "cannibal" as being related to the god Baal. Kinda ridiculous, and I thought so when I first read it.
He did make some good points and in some places his historiography was correct, and I give him credit for that. No one made those connections before that. But I thought he went off the deep end by extending it too far.
This was a book that was available by order from the Jehovah's Witnesses in the 1970s, which is when I was active. Being the bookish type, I read it and found it interesting, but not entirely believable. The JW's liked it, even though it wasn't sanctioned JW literature, because he framed the argument of the Church or Rome being equivalent to the Whore of Babylon in a way they liked.
That makes sense. I remember there being some JW rhetoric in it. I onow he had to revise it shortly after its first release to back peddle on his original statements about jews.
Prince Charles Dines on Human Flesh at cannibal restaurant in Los Angeles.
Text - “My thanks to Karina and The Hollydale. The people were delicious, the setting was lovely, and a wonderful time was had by all. Rather unfortunate for the Danish fellow we were eating, but there you have it. Some people were made to be eaten and others, it seems, were made to eat them.” Charles, Prince of Wales.
"The restaurant and staff are privately owned by Karina Belenoff-Windsor, daughter of Somerset Belenoff Countess of Banbury and Arran and sister to WGC luminary Natalie Belenoff-Windsor, Karina sits on the Board of Governors at the World Governing Council in Luxembourg, she travels frequently to Los Angeles to ensure The Hollydale is always in tip-top shape. https://www.soulask.com/has-an-elite-cannibal-restaurant-been-discovered-in-los-angeles/ "
"Whether or not this clip is real, cannibalism in some form is something the globalists will eventually push for. Programes like this are for testing the waters. It will be touted as a nutritious and green food but the real agenda is to desensitise people to the horror and further cheapen human life. Slowly, Soylent Green comes closer to becoming reality. People's reaction to this may be strong this time, but what about the next time, and the time after that? Have no doubt that pure evil is guiding our world. Nothing is off the table - quite literally. https://odysee.com/@wayoftheworld:7/cannibalismisnowcool:2).
It all came together in a video that briefly appeared on a Japanese website, whereas a youngish blond woman on horseback who resembled Natalie Belenoff-Windsor in every way, was with a large pig herding a group of naked children toward a manor house .. I have no doubt they were destined for the table.
A lot of ppl speak highly of the Sami and Samoy ppl who inhabit the Finland / Russia border regions, they should be aware both tribes are particularly ruthless cannibals, indeed the word "Samoyed" in the local dialect means "they eat their own." Imagine someone who has installed his or her self as a "Village Chief," making it known to underlings that they had better bring food into the tipi or they will be going onto the menu.
I have always maintained charges of murder should be laid in all cases of homicide, however if a cannibal is bearing down upon you and yours you have a natural right to fire first - yeah shoot 'em on sight.
