Circumcision
Hi Tangle,

The only reason for this practice is religious. All the rationalisation therafter can be ignored.

What are the benefits of circumcision?
There is some evidence that circumcision has health benefits, including:
A decreased risk of urinary tract infections.
A reduced risk of some sexually transmitted diseases in men.
Protection against penile cancer and a reduced risk of cervical cancer in female sex partners.
Prevention of balanitis (inflammation of the glans) and balanoposthitis (inflammation of the glans and foreskin).
Prevention of phimosis (the inability to retract the foreskin) and paraphimosis (the inability to return the foreskin to its original location).
Circumcision also makes it easier to keep the end of the penis clean.
Circumcision: Pros vs Cons, Benefits, Risks, Procedure Overview
Don't sound like that is religious to me.
God Bless,

"John 5:39 (KJS) Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me."

Decide for me

The job of our institutions is to protect all of society and improve our society. It balances personal freedoms against public harm.
So you believe that the government knows what you need better than you do.
