Let me start by suggesting that slamming someone's religion is probably not
a good thing to do, particularly if you can't be bothered to attempt to
spell what you're slamming properly.

Having said that, cannabalism is often an accusation by one group against
another- the Christians during the Inquisition accused Jews and Witches of
the practice, ..

an accusation borrowed from early roman diatribes against christians, probably based on the ceremony of the Eucharist..

which, according to catholic dogma,  is not ritual cannibalism, but true cannibalism, since the miracle of Transubstantiation literally transforms the bread and wine into the actual body and blood of a specific human being, i.e., Christ, whose nature is wholly human, (unless you're one of those dadblamed heretics who think he's only part human). That particular miracle is supported by multiple reports concerning miracles of a bleeding Host. So I have to suggest that getting the theology right isn't exactly "slamming" a religion, spelling notwithstanding..I also believe Eukarist is the original (greek) spelling, therefore correct, or at least "proper". :)
