How big is the rod you beat your children with?

I use the original stick from "The Quiet Man" that John Wayne was given "to beat the pretty lady with".

You think perhaps God was speaking figuratively when He instituted circumcision? Or is it that "God said so" isn't good enough for you?

I thought it was about pretzel rods. They're good for teething.

Do you consider yourself a Christian? Do you believe it is God's Law that all males be circumcised?

Do you believe in slavery? Or is it that "God said so" isn't good enough for you?

Genesis 17:
[12] He that is eight days old among you shall be circumcised; every male throughout your generations, whether born in your house, or bought with your money from any foreigner who is not of your offspring,
[13] both he that is born in your house and he that is bought with your money, shall be circumcised. So shall my covenant be in your flesh an everlasting covenant.
