Probably why I have such little regard for the US then? Religious people are the most morally bankrupt of all scum of the earth.
Here in Britain we managed to bend and break Christanity to our own moral ideals before we finally cast it aside in favor of proper secular belief. Religious should be at best Tolerated, and if they rear their ugly head should be crushed under heel like any other dangerous social parasite.
The only benefit is it may reduce certain types of Cancer and sexually transmitted disease.
But then it promotes other certain cancer types and sexually transmitted diseases.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mutilation
Mutilation or maiming is cutting off or injury to a body part of a person so that the part of the body is permanently damaged or disfigured.
Just because you find the Aesthetics of the damaged body part to your liking, does not make it Mutilation.
Oh MMO-C.com - I'm glad we are having this thread again, it brings back memories..
OT: honestly.. who gives a shit lolo - Whether you are circumcised or not you don't know what it's like to be one or the other unless you had it done later in life... It's time to stop the crying, and move forward
Obligatory: male circumcision is in no way comparable to FGM. The biological equivalent of FGM would be something between cutting off the head (glans) or complete removal of the entire penis.
However, I generally support efforts to discourage child circumcision when there is no medical necessity for it (eg, phimosis). I think the way some people like to scream "child mutilation" is actually counter-productive, we need to have an open and honest discussion about this issue in order to change the culture around it. And not just in religious communities, there are also mostly secular communities where it is still the norm (eg, in the US).
As for laws against it, I'm kind of on the fence about that.
It's only on babies and children in this case, ie the parents making the decision for them.
Arbitrary? You're cutting off a part of the body (permanently damaging), on someone who can't give consent. What is so hard to understand about the maiming part?
You don't need your ear lobes, well frankly you just need a part of your ears. How is this religious nonsense practice any different from one where you would cut off most of the ear?
People in the US are not secular.
No, we do not need to coddle stupidity. Every time I hear someone is Circumcised for non medical reasons, I laugh at them. I laugh at them HARD. I let out a big belly full of the most purist mirth I can ever muster.
Because these people will forever have a mark of stupidity burned into their bodies. their parents have fallen for the most stupid of social traps and now they have to live with it.
I pity people who are less than me. Because that is literally what it is. They are less of a man than me.
