Nonsense. Jihadist murder, for instance, is a "religious ceremony" that the state has every power to regulate (states don't have "rights"; they have "powers").

And genital mutilation is a barbaric custom, might I add.

LOL, I stand corrected. I'm just concerned with state governments using "health concerns" to strip people of liberties. Smoking bans come to mind, along with countless other "health" related regulation.

And barbaric it is.

I thought this circumsation thing had been abandoned years and years ago. This cult ritual goes back to biblical times and is often mortal.
