The government has no right to try and enforce circumcision because of perceived health risks, and this is what will eventually happen if the health-Nazis continue to get their way. This MIGHT cause you to become ill, so we will prevent it by force.
In terms of parents circumcising, I recognize there is a constitutional issue, in that you don’t have consent from the child before you carry out circumcision, and tradition or not, it is amputating part of the body that cannot be recovered easily (although this is changing). It’s hard to decide who has constitutional protection in this issue. Is it the parent? Or the child?
Definitely a topic that is going to come to the surface in the coming years. Interesting to debate.
The lefty government enforce circumcision? I would think the other way around, given their views on Israel and Jews in general.
