Good discussion. I am not sure if they engage in human sacrifice, but they have all the other tramping a death cult, disguised as a science. Behind it all is the mother of all Ponzi schemes. Without growth of the planet killing DEBT STAR they cannot produce mountains of interest and fees. For most of human history interest was called USURY and prohibited by religious edicts. Now it is the prime source of the vast phantom wealth machinery, and made more dangerous by the total financialization of human existence.
