Still happpens today, you just don't hear about it. Its pure evil
Much to God's shame, Ezekiel 23 is great example of how much they angered the lord. Still, he held out the remnant (1 Kings 19:18). God gave the others a chance to change their ways before he came in the Book of Malachi, they did not, and the Lord laid Jerusalem to waste through the Romans, corrupted their seed and spread refuse upon their faces (Malachi 2:3) and branded them the Synagogue of Satan.
take a guess OP
Cronus/Baal/Moloch/Remphan all have to do with the planet Saturn funnily enough

It's called abortion.
Clearly (((someone))) also persuaded the Carthaginians to kill their children for (((reasons))).
(((who could be behind that?)))

If people and scholars actually read the bible they'd already have known about child sacrifice, it's not really a great mystery
The aztecs MOST CERTAINLY sacrificed their own, and even gladly offered up the family members even of the elites. It was considered an honor. Please don't talk about things you don't understand. We have enough experts on here.
Actual archeological excavations of these trophets show the vast majority would have had birth deformities so bad they would have died at birth or shortly after. One explanation is that the people thought they would be getting the child back - the child would continue to be reborn until it was in a good body, if the Deity in question was appealed to.
Because they didn't have modern technology to tell them if a child had major physical problems, so they couldn't abort.
You seem to think they sacrificed some large number of kids, which is pretty doubtful. Maybe they didn't sacrifice any at all. The Romans hated them for their military successes, so were hardly an unbiased source.
