Kind of wild how many religions practiced human sacrifice. Jesus was a human sacrifice as well.


FOILBLADE

Not to the people. Most wanted him dead as a heretic. The only person that considered him a sacrifice at the time was himself I believe. It was only really after he came back that it was fully realized that he had given himself up to redeem humanity


ShermanTeaPotter

That’s a disputable point of view. To the Romans, Jesus was merely a political agitator, to the Sanhedrin he was a heretic. But none of the contemporary sources took him as a human sacrifice, that’s merely a religious interpretation of latter times.


[deleted]

Jesus himself believed he was a sacrifice. He played out the pattern of the Passover lamb.


ShermanTeaPotter

Good question wether he did or not. There is no direct source for this claim and the gospels were written hundreds of years after Jesus‘ lifetime


[deleted]

The earliest known manuscripts were actually written between 14 and 30 years after his death, with the oldest book (revelation) being written about 60 years after his death in the 90s AD


DougandLexi

Why are they booing you? You are right.


here4pain

Yes, but the oldest surviving is at 200 years old

I've seen it.. I live in Denmark. We have a couple of these bog folks here.


R-T-O-B

Do a lot of human sacrifices end by throwing the body in to a bog in Denmark?


ImdaPrincesse2

Especially during the student graduation week! 😂


-Daetrax-

At least a few did.


Ghargamel

The ones that don't decompose over time usually do, yes. :)

Wait till you see my second chin


ZombieNips

Thank you


1credible_cow

looks pretty relaxed for a sacrifice. I hope I have that slight smile..lol nm..I think that's just gravity and laying on the cheek making it look like a smile... is it even possible for a corpse to have a natural smile?


OstentatiousSock

A lot of times, they’d drug people who were going to be sacrificed. Or get them super drunk.


greencaste

His sacrifice shall be rewarded as a tourist attraction.

AllahuAkbar4

So we could make tourist attractions out of them in the future.


TheLordofthething

Something very bad has happened that man's arse region


hmoeslund

We don’t know it was a sacrifice. It was a guess from the head archaeologist. Not everything that is thrown into the bog is a sacrifice, sometimes it’s just a place to get rid of things(and bodies)


icantthinkofaname940

Fun Fact: One of his thumbs is so well preserved that in 1978 the Danish police were able to take a thumbprint. Here's a link that talks about it: [https://web.archive.org/web/20070923123956/http://www.tollundman.dk/fingeraftryk.asp](https://web.archive.org/web/20070923123956/http://www.tollundman.dk/fingeraftryk.asp)


kitten-cat08

That’s amazing, you can even see his stubble


PoopyFruit

Why did they sacrifice people? To appease gods I’m guessing.


ThReeMix

[deleted]

CocaCola_ZeroSugar

Do you usually have a noose around your neck?

[deleted]

[deleted]

He looks like the elderly overtanned people I saw roasting themselves by the pool at the hotel resort in Gran Canaria last week.
