100 deaths for no reason. Old religious rituals really do die hard..Catholics just yanked the popes body out of it's crypt the other day, so we've still got a long way to go as a species. Just creepy and unnecessary.
See my previous post for a definition of mutilation. You know what, the medical book lists that the procedure should be done in specific situations because of health. That's not what happens 99.% of time. It's just done because it's always been done. You've made my freaking POINT!!!! People choose to have facelifts, it's not done as soon as they exit the wound..For that matter, according to your logic, that'd be fine, unnecessary procedures are cool, right? LOL!!
According to the link you posted, they are choosing to be mutilated. See how silly it is to refer to circumcision as "mutilation?"

LOL, you're so stuck on that word. Babies can't choose to be mutilated, what are you talking about?..OK, for the sake of argument lets say it's a completely unneccesary surgical procedure. Does that make it better? NOOOO..

But it's not, in some cases, a completely unnecssary surgical procedure. What do you mean I am stuck on that word? I didn't bring up mutilation; I only responded to it.
You are blowing out of proportion what is a simple surgical procedure. Relax!
oh for heavens sake, get over it. I guess you will never know will you and are you saying sex isn't all the great, you would love to see if there is something out there better? BTW, circumcism, for religious reasons is as old as the Bible, but for other reasons it isn't all that old.

Yes, some people are overly-emotional. I say let's be concerned about serious health matters like cancer, heart disease, macular degeneration, MS, muscular dystrophy, etc.

It's an uneccesary procedure that kills one hundred babies a year and deprives them of the choice of having the foreskin they were born with..You're defending nonsense. You've admitted it's uneccessary for healthy kids, you know it can be dangerous, it does lessen sexual sensation. It's nothing but an old religious ritual to supress sexual desire. It needs to stop.
