the blood of young children
 
Apparently people have been drinking blood for ages, believing that it is an elixir for youth and regeneration

For the Ancient Greeks, blood was a magical elixir... Pliny the Elder (AD 23-79), one of the great historians of the Roman Empire, described the mad rush of spectators into arenas to drink the blood of fallen gladiators... Centuries later, Marsilio Ficino (1433-1499) similarly promoted drinking young blood as a means for the elderly to regain their youthful vigor...

And according to the linked article, now the wealthy elite are being infused with the blood of young children as an elixir of life.

Drinking blood is not a new development. Most who engage in this practice think they’re either taking part in a scientific practice or dabbling in witchcraft. That is what makes understanding the obsession among the wealthy elite with drinking the blood of children so complicated.
The ancient Greeks and Romans were notorious for their beliefs in the powerful medicinal advantages of drinking an “elixir” of blood. And not much has changed over the years.
Back in the early days of “blood transfusions” they thought drinking the blood was the most efficient scientific method. Some accounts indicate that Pope Innocent VIII was the first person to receive a “blood transfusion” in 1492. Many historical accounts claim he utilized his position to gain access to a constant supply of fresh blood from young Jewish boys.

I have a book I'm intending to read some time soon, when I can work up the nerve called A Crime So Monstrous: Face-to-Face with Modern Day Slavery by E. Benjamin Skinner.

I read the first chapter awhile ago, and had to put the book down; I couldn't handle it. The opening pages describe how easily the author, going undercover, could buy a child in Haiti to do with as he pleased.

This wickedness is prevalent in many impoverished parts of the world, and it's easy to think it only happens over there, or that it can be ignored here in the West, but this stuff happens, too. If you want to break your heart and have a hard time sleeping, just go the www.missingkids.com.

I can hardly imagine, but probably almost all of the children who are kidnapped are also sexually abused then murdered, and who knows how many of them were snatched up by professional kidnappers who get paid to then auction them off on the Dark Web or in some other part of the world where law enforcement and jurisprudence barely or not at all, exists.

This is very interesting to me. It's something I never heard about before this thread. What I find interesting is this is the very thing many Jewish people in the Diaspora into Europe were accused of doing.

I would wager a guess that this false accusation against Jewish people was used as a ruse and cover up to divert suspicions away from people like Pope (not)Innocent VIII and others.

Scientific American is "lots of conspiracy theory"?

Oh, wait, I forgot, "conspiracy theory" is defined as:

conspiracy theory
n.
1. Anything that would indicate things are not as Sesame Street as I was told they were in Kinneygarden.
2. A fact that contradicts a popular delusion.
3. Literally Hitler.

Do you always get an attitude when someone disagrees?

Anyway. Referring to Pay Pal founder drinking blood. Conspiracy theory much.
Reposted by several outlets... because he's a Trump supporter.

Does it seem like I have "an attitude"? I was just posting a response, is all.

You forgot one thing on your list.

If you oppose any one claiming it's a conspiracy theory you have an attitude.

Modern day slavery was mentioned in a post above. I remember hearing a preacher in the late 80's or early 90's state that human slavery would make a comeback in the last days. I hadn't thought about it much since until I read votivesoul's post above. The preacher was preaching on Revelation 18 and pointed out the following concerning the merchants of the earth and their weeping over the fall of Babylon the Great, the Mother of Harlots, because no one was buying their merchandise any longer...
Revelation 18:11-13 King James Version (KJV)
11 And the merchants of the earth shall weep and mourn over her; for no man buyeth their merchandise any more:
12 The merchandise of gold, and silver, and precious stones, and of pearls, and fine linen, and purple, and silk, and scarlet, and all thyine wood, and all manner vessels of ivory, and all manner vessels of most precious wood, and of brass, and iron, and marble,
13 And cinnamon, and odours, and ointments, and frankincense, and wine, and oil, and fine flour, and wheat, and beasts, and sheep, and horses, and chariots, and slaves, and souls of men.
I was a new convert back when I heard this and I remember wondering how a global slave trade could ever make a comeback in our modern world. Well, now we know.

Maranatha.

Slavery making a comeback? It has been thriving in some shape or form everywhere on earth. Illegal immigration is kept alive and well, because they will work for coolie wages. Keeping people at the level of poverty is also slavery. As far as sex trafficking of children that is as old as time, and as long as it is profitable there will be a market. This country is entering her her slide into total depravity. Sex trafficking of children and the idea of Pizzagates will become more prevalent.

Revelation 11:1-18 is quoting Jeremiah. It is pointed to Jereusalem the same way it was meant for Jereusalem during the time of the prophet. That is what the writer is trying to get across to his Diaspora Judean readers. Obviously not meant for every moment in history. Since the writing of the Revelation, we do have instances of slavery being conducted, and therefore why consider the verse to have any special meaning now? It would make the book meaningless especially to the ones it was originally meant to reach.

Good points.

I was just pointing out the context in which I heard a preacher speak of slavery making a comeback in the United States.
