I don’t have a link handy but I am pretty sure that medical studies show circumcision results in fewer health problems.

I am not a Jew and I don’t know the rules, but IMO circumcision should be done by a Doctor.

I know as we get older we have a bit of shrinkage of the wedding tackle, and circumcision makes things a little easier to keep from peeing on the walls and floor.

Maybe in Somalia or in the slums of India a foreskin is ‘unhealthy’ but not here in America where good personal hygiene is practiced. Welcoming a baby boy into the world by cutting part of his penis off is criminal in my view. It’s there for a few reasons, one of which is to enhance pleasure and also to ensure a more successful conception.

my urologist racquetball buddy says circumcism prevents AIDS. He did a month experiment in Africa with amazing results.

I was born a 7 moth ‘preemie’, so that was out of the question for me.

I can guarantee your assuredness is true.

Old information.

If you live in a modern world and use modern hygiene the risks are reduced to where there is virtually no difference.

If you were living in the pre-Abrahamic Middle East, where soap and water were not regularly used...yes, that could be problematic.

“I don’t have a link handy but I am pretty sure that medical studies show circumcision results in fewer health problems.”

This is true, but how many times do things go wrong in a hospital/doctor’s office vs. at a religious ceremony (and I’m not exactly a big fan of the medical industry) . There is an article on drudge right now where a poor little kid got his weenie wacked off, and I doubt it it will be known if it still “works” for many years.

If someone offers a group discount to circumcize every male in a village, be careful. It’s probably a trick.

I am not a Jew but i do believe God has a purpose for every thing he said or did,i personally believe it was for the purpose of cleanliness which would prevent problems.
