Liberals only say something when it serves the higher agenda of the moment. At this moment, it is fashionable to suppresses evil Joooos.

what the hell is it with liberals and circumcision all of a sudden ?

Dr. Dean Edell has been on an anti-circumcision crusade for a couple of decades now. Nothing new.

‘Jews, on the other hand should know better, and I would think they would be open to rational debate.”

rational debate about what? about a tradition that is 5000 years old which just happens to have a religious basis.

Muslim mutilation of women is not comparable to the practice of circumcising boys.

I doubt you’ll hear Barbra Streisand condemn circumcision. When her son was born in 1965, she was a committed Zionist.

It’s a gay theme. It comes directly from the religion-hating activist gay males.

Just another anti-Semite doing what anti-Semites do-—denounce Scripture and try to align themselves with all the other anti-Semites in the world. If the elitist Jewish community in Hollywood had any gonads, he would have to make the rest of his films elsewhere other than in the US. But there are 3 things that keep them from doing that. 1) their greed 2) their historic progressive liberal politics and view of the world and 3) their own personal opposition to the Jewish faith.

It's nice to know my family is not the only one which relies so heavily upon Russell Crowe's parenting advice. But I hope you never have to go through the pain my wife and I once endured as a result of NOT being able to avail ourselves of his wise counsel.

When my wife and I were trying to choose a school for our son, we couldn't reach Russell Crowe. He was in some third-world country or another shooting a movie or something. But we needed to decide where our little boy was going to go for his first year of school. So, and think for a moment how terrifying THIS was, We had to decide all by ourselves! Talk about scary stuff!

Anyway, that was almost 5 years ago, and our son is doing fine, but my wife and I both still suffer from the lasting effects of the sheer mental anguish we endured when we were not able to get Russell Crowe's input on such an important decision.

Do you think we have grounds for a lawsuit against Mr. Crowe?

;-)

So much for this guy. I used to like him. Master and Commander was my favorite movie, even. Now he is just one more antisemitic actor. I won’t watch anymore of his movies.

“Hey crowe stick with your day job and if we want your opinion we’ll kick you in the ba**s to let you know.”

This is his day job. Hollywood actors are expected to promote liberalism in order to keep getting parts.

There is no higher risk of cancer. I will tell you a simple way to find out. If you think that the rate of cancer should increase or a specific type of cancer because of a child not being circumcised, then all you have to look at is the cancer statistics between a country that practices circumcision and one that doesnt. You will proobably find that there is no difference. Example, on the issue of penile cancer, a study done on japan sweden and norway shows that the incidence of penile cancer was the same as the United States, the difference being that those latter countries have extrmeely low circumcision rates, while we fluctuate between like 50 and 70 or something. You would expect there to be a difference if not being circumcised was a driving force. Its about 1 per 100,000 per year.

All that your child will need to do is clean himself, which is normal, no? It started becoming popular because crackpot doctors were linking it to, hernia, kidney stones, bladder infections, insomnia, epilepsy, asthma, INSANITY, syphilis, bright’s disease. The problem with following ancient peoples advice is that they are, more often than not, wrong.. For example a study in 2006 actually showed circumsized men are actually at lower risk of contracting syphilis.

In any case, I dont think I will be circumcising my children as I do not have any religious obligations to do so. Id bet that most Evangelicals do it because they want to be Jewish. Sorry I cant but help taking a jab.

Disagreeing with circumcision and antisemitism are two separate things. I don’t feel the antisemitic part, just a strong opinion on this issue. Frankly I am circumcised, and I am not sure I would put a child through it, although the health benefits are numerous which weighs in its favor.

If you look closely at Russell Crowe’s neck, you will see surgery scars. That’s right.....he is a dickhead.

Crowe: same guy who has had a special love of horses. “They’re just like people”... he told Craveline.

Noble beasts yes, ummm but “just like people”, no...

Never cease to be amazed at the stupidity of Hollywood actors no matter where they come from, even down under.

After emerging actors have been synthesized into that mindset, they suddenly feel compelled to spew out one ridiculous idea after another as if anyone actually cares or qualifies them to give their obviously overrated poignant opinions.
