You evidently have NO idea what you are talking about. It wasn't that " GOD screwed up "; it was a pack and a coveninent WITH GOD . It was also, I suspsect an easy way of tellng just who was who, rather easily, for the Ancient Hebrews.

For Jewish people, a Bris takes place 8 days after birth, I think. They do have the baby suck on a towel ( or something ) dipped in wine. It is a religious sacriment ; for you to call it derrogatory names is rather pathetic and silly and disrespectful.

Male circumcision doesn't harm men . Female Pharoonic circumcision harm and brualizes females. Big difference , dear.

After reading this thread I can come to only one conclusion, our world situation is hopeless, but not serious.

You really believe that? Yikes. So God purposely added some useless flesh for the benefit of Ancient Hebrews? Please. Oh, and 'pact' and 'covenant'.

Yeah, spoken like a woman, I suppose? I guess performing surgical procedures on 8-day-old babies is a great thing. You've converted me to your perverted thought.

Interestingly enough, it is around 7-8 days after birth that a newborn's level of blood coagulant peaks. I can't remember where I picked up this factoid, but I remember it as reputable, so it stuck with me. If any one has any more to this, true or false, please by all means, post. I see circumcision as a matter left to parents, best done while the infant has no memory of the pain. People pierce their daughters ears at infant age, to avoid having the baby play with it, and for the same forgetting of pain at that young age. People should mind their own damn business.

I would guess that's the excuse Muslims would make, too.
