The anti-male feminists of the United Nations unsurprisingly push circumcision as a panacea. They are wrong.
In fact, it is barbarism, and should be banned worldwide.

God commanded it for Israel. The United States, as the article points out, has an 80% circumcision rate and in the past it's been much higher. Could the United States be composed primarily of the descendents of the ten lost tribes of Israel? Coincidence? Or something more?

And for the record, I don't find it barbaric. Wasn't there just some study that circumcised males have a much smaller chance of contracting HIV then similiar non-circumcised males? And I always thought that feminist liberal women would be against circumcision?

Many consider it a privilege to be circumcised and be in conformity with the sacred and honored traditions of the Jewish people. It represents being brought into the eternal covenant between G-d and the descendents of Abraham and Sarah through the Mitzvah of Mila (circumcision)

"Thus My covenant will be marked on you as an everlasting pact" (Genesis 17:13)

Come on... Gene Scott has passed on. Are you going to assume his mantle?

There have been some studies to that effect. There has been anecdotal information to that effect for years but they couldn't figure out how or why. It seems like it was an Australian scientist who figured it out but I forget his results.

When it first came out that circumsized males had a lower chance of being affected by HIv in Africa, the do-gooder NGAs actually lobbied against it because it would hurt the culture. The Africans weren't stupid though, they just took their children to the tribes who circumsized and had them do it for them.
