A giant has brought war to the fields and towns of England's heartland. When the British army brings in air support and deploys heavy weapons he simply melts away, only to form again somewhere else and deliver another devastating blow. He is called Pantegrel, and he is a New Model Army—a giant whose thoughts flow through countless wireless connections, whose intelligence comes from the internet and real-time camera updates, whose mind is made up of thousands of minds, each deciding what he will choose to do. He has chosen the joy of the fight, and his fury is truly democratic—he is me and you. This is a terrifying vision of a near future war as new technologies allow the world's first truly democratic army to wrest control from the powers that be. Taking advances in modern communication and the new eagerness for power from the bottom upwards,

A foreskin that ends up in the trashbin may be a disgusting sight...but a penis without foreskin seems less of a discomfort for a man than having his mind being irrevocably programmed into a life that is as hard to remove or even change as is your mother tongue. You can emigrate to a place where you speak a different language every day and convert to secularism or to another variation on the same theme... but your mothers grammar with be with you all life long.
I can imagine the results on education of one's children if this prohibition was applied.
Voltaire was educated by the Jesuits. I don't think it diminished his ability to become a fierce critic of Catholicism, and of all religions.AzariLoveIran wrote:Jews or Muslims insisting on Circumcision their son are forcing on the child Islam or Judaism
what about if the boy does not want 2B Muslim or Jew ? ?
many, new generations, would like to make their own choice
You are fully in line with Saint Paul, e.g. Galates 5:6what does it say about a religion when Circumcision would be the heart & soul of that religion, instead of being good human being and things of that sort.
However, that belief does not confer any right to deny other people the right to practice other religions.For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision has any value. The only thing that counts is faith expressing itself through love.

I assumed parental consent was a given. Can you even baptize a child without the consent of their parents?

When one says, "Your thing doesn't have any skin on it!"
"I've been circumcised." says the second boy.
"What does that mean?"
"It means they cut the skin off the end."
"How old were you when it was cut off?"
"My mom said that I was two days old."
"Did it hurt?"
"You bet it hurt, I couldn't walk for a year!"

Oh, the hubriss.In August, about 200 Orthodox rabbis issued a decree accusing the department of spreading “lies and misinformation.”
“We are decreeing that according to our opinion, it is forbidden according to the Torah to participate in the evil plans of the NYC Health Dept. in any form,” their statement said, according to a translation published by Yeshiva World News.
