reading that the Aztecs (and other groups) of Mexico back in the pre-Spanish days made between
10,000-20,000 and more human sacrifices each year. I was troubled to find this out and am still troubled by it. Any blood spilled is too much but there does appear to be a pattern here and maybe
we can find a way to break it.
