Seems that their sexual partners aren't interested in oral sex. Not as clean.
The topic of circumcision regularly comes up on another message board I frequent, and it's been interesting reading the pros and cons.
The doctor was impressed by the scientific backing behind what I consider to be both a spiritual covenant, as well as being a health benefit. She became an advocate of 8th day circumcision, and, with our permission, invited other staff to witness. The boys are probably glad not to remember this!
And to the oldest, who posts here, I'll say, Son, I love you, I did it for you, and it hurt me more than it seemed to hurt you!
Now, as for my daughter, I left perfection alone.
And even happier that they won't have to get circumcized at adulthood when it would really be painful.
" Now it came to pass on the third day, when they were in pain, that two of the sons of Jacob, Simeon and Levi, Dinah's brothers, each took his sword and came boldly upon the city and killed all the males."
But not so easy that you would provide us with any sort of documentation, eh?
We aren't as removed from the Talibans as a lot of you would like to think.
I'm so tired of hearing of this type of bunk. Sell your anti-American tripe on some other server.
Because their is no central religious authority in Islam (like the Papacy). (the first Arab Imperial state killed off virtually all of Mohammed's descendants)
Also, because in Africa-- the clerics are African themselves and probably seek to preserve the animist culture the were raised into.
That may indeed be a factor, it's true that casual cruelty to people and animals doesn't seem to be particularly evil to people who are themselves suffering and struggling just to survive in a harsh environment where hardship and pain are everyday realities. But islam institutionalizes murder and cruelty as an offical intrument for converting the "infidel" world, and for keeping it's believers from accepting "heresies" such as Christianity.
Barbaric treatment of people by primitive, semi-civilized tribesmen is one thing, murder and torture as a deliberate policy of the educated and urbane clergy of an organized religious institution is something else. I believe the unspeakable cruelties practiced by the apostate medieval church were just as Satanically inspired as the cruelties of islam. But the church was reformed during the renaissance, and forced conversion was eventually proscribed both by the reformers and the Catholic church. Meanwhile, islam continues to force conversions and punish "infidels" by murder and persecution just as it has for 1400 years. This is also true to a lesser degree of some other false religions, but islam is the most notorious offender. I believe that all religions except Judaism and Christianity are Satanic in origin, but islam in particular seems to be his preferred instrument for persecution of the church and Judaism.
THAT, was priceless. I firmly believe that God has a good sense of humor, this would be the ultimate HELL for any man.
BTW, can someone post the thread where HT was drooling all over DIRTPOTUS at a function recently? I'd like to mail it to my local paper, as evidence that the hideous HT isn't an impartial reporter at all and should be considered, like a bug under a microscope, as the alien parasite that she is.
Thanks.
I HATE this subject, because it is "Personal, & 'Painful'"!
ONE MORE TIME, I will attempt to educate the "FR Circumcision Buffs!"
What I NOW tell you is the ABSOLUTE TRUTH---Un-Tainted by ANY "socio-political agenda!"
-------The Removal of the Male Foreskin DIRECTLY REDUCES the "Male's" ability to receive Sexual Stimulation, & Substantially reduces the "Male's" ability to appreciate Sexual stimulation to the head of his Penis!!
THERE, --I've Said it!!--!
Male circumcision has a DELETERIOUS EFFECT on male sexual pleasure!!
FIRE AWAY!!
As an "Un-Circumcised Male," I can ABSOLUTELY DEFEND the above postulations!
Doc
Way big dittos, bud. You are correct.
Doc, honestly...I don't think I could stand it if felt any better. I will just have to take your word on this one. I did manage to father 5 wonderful children.
