The poster was asking for rational arguements, I think, instead of just 'ohhh, that's gross'. Why is it gross? Why is it more gross than eating any other meat? I attempted to answer that in a rational way and left out 'feelings'. As for my feelings on the subject, I don't really have strong feelings about it. I personally don't have any desire to try this, I just don't. But I wouldn't fault anyone else for having a curiosity, so long as the flesh was procured legally, I don't have an issue with someone making that choice to try it.
I also think the poster implied the flesh was legally obtained (and it CAN be in most places), so I'm not sure where the 'value of life' is coming into play here. He wasn't suggesting hunting humans or killing them for this purpose. A person technically wouldn't even have to die to be able to donate their flesh, it could come from an amputation.
Given the chance, would you try human flesh?
