Society/Culture Circumcision

I'm sure there must be a raft of websites devoted exclusively to this peccadillo.

have you heard john laws say mohels aint mohels

John Laws is always fair game, I just don't get why you keep trollin' Fry

Well that is what I am aware of. Orthodox Jewish rabbis must suck the blood from the infants snipped penis. Herpes has been spread that way. And law suits filed in the USA.

why did God design The perfect male human form in Adam, with a defect? An elongated foreskin?

It appears that the chosen people were so wise and alert that they detected this holy defect in Adan's foreskin and implemented a foreskin trimming program for newly born boys and infants.

God is as afllible as the next guy...in fact he may as well be the next guy, for all the power he has.
Why does herpes even exist?
Is it to get back at those evil babies via the lips of a Rabbi?

perhaps you're right

God created everything after all - even the devil, and free will, and the Essendon Football club

Although I think you will find that God is not a "he"

Are you aware that it is written somewhere in scripture that a few Rabbis once had a debate with God (YHWH) and that the Rabbis were able to defeat God with reasoning and intellect?

So not only can the Chosen People detect holy design defects such as elongated foreskins, they have great debating skills that even God cannot handle.

I know that I am very impressed with this obviously superior race of humans who undergo foreskin trimming procedures of minors without their consent

They probably won on the basis of unintelligible argument. Have you ever spoken to a fundamentalist Jew on matters religious?
I know exactly what Sybil's psychoanalyst had to go through.
There are generally far more than one person living in their heads.

The Talmud is an interesting read - makes the memoirs of Beelzebub appear like a children's comic

This thread really got down to the meat and potatoes regarding this issue.

 

[Pie eyed]

do they still call it that?

"remodeling the playground" now.

 

[FreoGirl]

Caught the 60minutes segment on it last night. Besides being terrible journalism, had people on who where for and against, but never actually asked them why they were for or against, it opened up discussion with the GF about the topic.

I'm anti, she'd always been for (without really considering in detail).

What do you think? I'm anti unless medically necessary, just think it should be the child's choice when they get to an age otherwise. Don't believe in religious exemptions either, but understand banning them might be impractical.

I'm in the middle of an assignment on this at the moment

Put in there some where that if its a womans decision in regards to abortion, then all decisions regarding dicks should be left up to men.

Unless it is a medical necessity it is child abuse in the name of religion. Pure and simple.

Or for aesthetics at which point they may as well bleach the arseh*le at the same time

I have a sneaking suspicion its organized action by mothers who want their kids to pee straight, making the bathroom easier to clean

Because only Mum's clean bathrooms

That did occur to me, when posting. But we are talking several decades ago for some posters


Mothers would have tended to clean bathrooms and made decisions about babies

When it was realised the procedure had gone wrong, the baby was rushed to hospital, where emergency micro-surgery was performed over eight hours to reattach the penis.

I think it's quite harsh at this stage to be commenting on the size of a guys wang. Give the dude at least a few years to see if he lengthens out a bit.

Micro is such a harsh word.
