Link.

Children, no less.

That is beyond horrible; beyond sick and twisted... And the fact that they're doing this to small, helpless children.

This furthers my belief that the world is seriously messed up.

In Africa happens strange things, like thelepathic violators and other things of that way. But, this... pass the line of insanity.

38 in 6 years, Looks like this Awali guy could be responsible for most of them.

I'd like to think it's just one crazy guy. A nut case trying to bring back an old tradition that should have remained history and not current day.

What is wrong with people?

[Gringamuyloca 47]

It is incredulous to think that in this day and age that such outrages can take place!

.... but we have the power to change it, now that we know it is happening... Bravo to Chris Rogers for having the strength to investigate and bring this story to our attention. (Criminals hate scrutiny!)

Shocking but not surprising in equatorial Africa. Child sacrifice has a long ugly tradition. While there is no confirming archeology, I think, the Bible cites the Philistines hurling newborns into the fires of Dagon. And whether Abram actually brought Isaac home is a good question. In any case, sacrifice of living beings is disgusting and messy. Even the sacrifice of the mass is not exactly a Christian ritual, and this kind of commemoration is pushing it when it comes to ethical behavior.

Someone raised the idea that this might be a single serial killer, and if this is so I hope they catch him soon. The ritual murders in African cults are generally disgusting and killing to appease the god of wealth should bring a severe punishment on those who commission such things. Maybe these fools can be hung with a gold rope. They certainly deserve the punishment of King Midas.
