1. Circumcision is not irreversible.
Really? I did not know that, but even if I were one of those infant boys who got it, I really could care less.
4. If child circumcision were a crime, All my ancestors and myself and my eldest son are all guilty. Generation after generation of Jews, Muslims and African animists have practiced child circumcision. But now—watch out! San Franciscans suddenly got a hard-on to ban it, so thousands of years of tradition have to go out the window. Nonsense. “Those that care not for tradition will care even less for their posterity.”-Edmund Burke.
I am not Jewish, but at the same time, circumcision is benign compared to a great deal of the other things that get pushed in the rest of society’s face. Again, people who are make no big deal about it to me, so I leave them alone in return.
Thank you, Morpheus. But stay away from San Francisco. You are now officially a heretic, and liable to be burnt at the stake.
I wonder if extended lower lips will be the fashion there this year.
