I live about 50 miles from the City and heard a little bit about this on the radio news yesterday.

I wondered how one go herpes from a circumcision. I was quite stunned when I found out exactly what they were doing.

[Pharmboy]

Well, observant to Rabbinic Judaism; there are some Jews who are Torah-observant and do not follow what the Rabbis of the Babylonian exile decided.

Tangent thread hijack. Start a new topic.

Nonsense. I object to this article, when this has been reported endlessly in American media.

I thought we were not supposed to consume blood.

I would think that HaShem would frown upon such a disgusting practice that clearly spreads disease.

It’s hardly natural for a Rabbi,or anyone else,to put his mouth on an infant’s penis.

[Secret Agent Man]

Baloney, you posted about an entirely different subject and why aren’t we talking about it instead.

I thought we were not supposed to consume blood.

Plus the rest of what you wrote.

Any rabbi doing this should be shunned...and arrested.

[onedoug]

...or mohel....

Drawing blood is necessary, using ones mouth is not. This process places a child at risk. Most ultra-orthodox Jews do not do this. Some will not live in the real world and are so stuck on tradition, that they ignore the law.

Is this really a Jewish ritual? I've never heard of it, i thought circumcision was just remove the foreskin

montag --> because Islam is a death-loving satanic religion. no one gets shocked by what they do and no one excepts anything but the lowest common denominator

Jews on the other hand are civilised folks, intelligent folks etc. A death of 1 Jew in cold logical terms (and I know, I know a human life is a human life) leads to more of a loss for the scientific and intellectual community than the loss of one Moslem who is nearly never given the opportunity to be anything but a lower civilized being.

familyop --> the h's are lower than Moslem, they do things even animals won't....

Yes it is. A plastic or glass tube may be used, from what I understand.

I believe this story is 6 or 7 years old.
