As we Catholics and those of other faiths who have joined with us conclude our Fortnight for Freedom later this week on Independence Day, let us be mindful that the freedom we seek is freedom for all.

In his article, Goldman, himself an observant Jew, includes the text of a letter he wrote to two German judges. He says: “Not even the Nazis thought of banning circumcision as a way of uprooting Jewish life in Germany. If your decree withstands a constitutional challenge, Germany once again will be Judenrein.”

Ping!

Very few nonJews can still be counted as our friends. I’m glad this Catholic man stands up for us.

Human Beings have a right to their own bodies. Circumcision of infants or children should be banned as a violation of human rights. If ADULTS want to undergo circumcision, then by the same right to their own bodies, and right to their religious beliefs, they should be able to do so.

What level of physical disfigurement is the limit? Chopping off foreskins? Of chopping out entire clitorises in girls? Or chopping off hands or gouging out eyes of errant youths who violate religious proscriptions? How about chopping off heads of disbelievers, and shooting women who violate the religious “honor” of families?

As if humanity doesn’t have enough of a historical record to draw some obvious conclusions about this concept!

No.

Circumcision is a Divine commandment given to Abraham by G-d Himself. Unfortunately the "official" Jewish reaction has been predictable: G-d isn't mentioned, and it's all reduced to the Holocaust and "rights."

Circumcision is not a "right." It is a Divine command.

What will it take to wash the "enlightenment" out of the Jewish system? Why this Voltaire gag reflex?

The eighteenth century "enlightenment" is dead and gone, and the sooner its rotten corpse is buried the better.

Kudos to this Catholic author for understanding better than Abe Foxman could.
