Ew, corpse eating. When will people realise that these disgusting religious practices aren’t okay to talk about in public? Nobody likes your corpse eating cult.
There’s no way a person who bases their decisions on scientific thinking would eat corpses. Not unless they were in a situation of absolute desperation. A person who bases their decisions on scientific thinking would determine killing is bad, and would just eat plants instead. Even if it cost an extra four dollars per grocery trip.
Corpse eating happens because of tradition and dogma. Because “that’s the way we’ve always done things.” We indoctrinate children into this blood cult and normalise violence the same way some religions normalise genital mutilation or ritual sacrifice of humans. Hells, the thanksgiving turkey, which is served in the literal shape of its corpse rather than being butchered or processed, is a ritual sacrifice.
A religion is not defined only by worship of gods, or else Buddhism would not be a religion. A religion can be defined by dogmatic, ritualised, inhumane practices taught to children from birth in the name of tradition. That’s what carnism is. I’ve never seen a defence of carnism that didn’t speak to some idea of “the natural order” or “tradition” or “the gods made them to be our food”, or some other religious nonsense.

I’ll bite (pun semi- intended) how is it religious?

Science does not produce value judgements.
Can you cite any peer reviewed studies that show scientific thinking necessarily leads away from omnivory?

You don’t understand what science or scientific thinking is.
You’re gonna tell me that “real” science is whatever aligns with your religion, aren’t you?
I think you are, bro. http://soulism.net/
