Why if you eat children/cute dog/tiny girl corpse, you will be cursed and doomed? It is rotten, or what?

It's caused by extreme bad karma, presumably. The message for eating the cute dog is "You feel very guilty about this." and the message for eating a dwarven child (I wasn't able to get a normal child corpse) is "You feel like a true monster!", which I think supports this theory.
The gods are watching, and they frown upon such behaviors. Your wickedness will be your undoing!
I, for one, enjoyed the explanation that you don't need food, but are instead looking to get high. In which case, the cute dog would be a bad acid trip, and the oracle would be a bad mushroom trip!
Dwarftown is a degenerate society, where the elder is hallucinating and imagining attacks (why else do the ogres and demon only show up after he suggests they exist?), and even the little children are using drugs. Civilization hasn't yet collapsed in Terinyo, which is why the children there don't drop corpses.
Pretty sure human children do not take dwarven candy saying that it's bad for their teeth, while dwarven children will happily chew away.
So I guess confirmed.
We should seriously build up the drug theory. Like the players are enabling Blup with carrot juice causing him to fly away and OD (since he is no longer seen again), Khelavaster smoking the crumpled scroll and Mad Minstrel getting exciting when receiving the weird tome. IT ALL MAKES SENSE!
I like my women like my ADOM loot - hunted as treasure and in extra quantity.
