Which Mesoamerican group practiced human sacrifice?
Throughout history, human sacrifice has been carried out, exclusively by other humans. Although most people equate human sacrifice with ancient obscure religious cults and barbaric cultures, it continues to this day and in some very public places. We tend to think of painted savages wielding stone blades when we think of human sacrifice, but government officials, religious zealots and the commanders of military actions are, as I type this, practicing human sacrifice. And the unnerving thing about it is that most of those sacrificed go willingly to the slaughter, believing they are "doing the right thing".
