If you engage them, you often find that people who are think that circumcision disfigures the body also think that conscience disfigures the soul. They may wrap their filth in fine words, but they are willing to endorse the vilest immorality and even murder -- just not circumcision.
63. A woman's opinion

Gary Dubrall - God is a Spirit who has created our material world. He speaks to both Jews and Christians through our spirits. If you have never wanted, or tried to speak to him you will never have heard him, He doesn't communicate with humans unless we truly want to communicate with him. Jesus is called the Word of God - christians believe that his words were God's words. All the prophets in the Torah also spoke God's words, and they were written down. (in answer to your statement that God has never spoken or written anything) As for circumcision, it is medically proved that it is only after 5- 7 days that a child's blood coagulation abilities are developed. It is miraculous that the Jewish law stated that circumcision should be done on the 8th day. . I am not Jewish, but I believe that since there is no medical contra-indication to circumcision ( the Jews (and Muslims), have survived successfully as a race), it would seem sensible to let this continue. Rather than detracting from society circumcision is a sign that links a man with his family and his race. The uncircumcised are Gentiles, and they should not interfere with the practices of people who are not Gentiles, (unless there was cruelty). How many people have their baby daughter's ears pierced? How many people allow their children to overeat on sweets? Many people would say that these practices are cruel, and they do not even have the 'excuse' of religion, but they are not against the law- (although we are being constantly told of the long term health concerns of allowing a child to be overweight.)This is more dangerous for children than circumcision, and in this also the child has no choice (they will eat whatever 'nice' things they are given) - but a court in Germany has not decided to bring these parents to court. There is a God and there is a Devil, who constantly tries to destroy God's people by different means. This may be the beginning of another attack. I hope not. But remember, Jews and Christians, - we are on the winning side, though it sometimes does not seem that way!

Then they can sit proudly in Galut(whatever that means) German prison when they're caught cutting off penises. Also, European prisons are usually majority muslim due to the extreme prevalence of crime in that community, so they would most likely have to spend their entire time in solitary confinement for their own safety.

"It's about enforcing their christian-occidental model onto (alien) minorities": As Germany is mainly reform-christian better: "reform-christian-occidental model". Like in NL, UK, US, DK & al. Europe's North except Poland and Ireland is reform-christian and has developed another way of thinking and living as catholics do. No ones' better or worse but: different.

Edithann ,   USA   (06.29.12)
join the club... It's interesting BS...but just as Jews think it's ok to mutilate their own newborns and have done for centuries..it's no wonder that people don't trust Jews..If they can be that cruel to their own, they certainly have no empathy for any other people...They also have it written in their Talmud..They are basically a cruel and predatory people..and have no redeeming qualities at all.. They should be walled up and not allowed to mingle with 'others'.... .. TATA

72. Critical legal issue is consent
R Narz ,   Toronto   (06.29.12)
Now in order to actually agree to anything yourself, you have to 18 in most jurisdictions. So, this is a case of the parents forcing their will upon the child who has no capacity to say yes or no. If a person 18+ chooses to get one on HIMSELF, that should be his choice.

Why do you, and others who think like you, come to an Israeli/Jewish websites if you can't stand the Jews? I mean, if I didn't like a group of people, I would definitely NOT GO TO WEBSITES where people of that group congregate. It just shows how much of a loser you are.
74. In UK not only Jews are circumcized, many
Peggy ,   UK   (06.29.12)
gentiles also have their baby boys circumcised, purely for health reasons, which is also why the Jews have done this for thousands of years. The baby is 8 days old and many I know in Israel now, do not have a Mohel, but have it done at the hospital by a doctor. Know how many infections can happen under the foreskin? I also feel its a bit cruel to do this to an older boy, different religions and peoples have their age for this. By banning it I personally feel this will make it more dangerous for babies/boys as will be done in secret and maybe not always in the most hygenic circumstances.

Thessalonian ,   Canada   (06.29.12)
Peggy you wrote, "Know how many infections can happen under the foreskin?" No Peggy we don't know, so please kindly oblige and do tell us. Or is it something not to be disclosed, being the fallacy that it is? In Western societies, circumcision has long been a profiteering scheme for medical professionals, fortunately most people have been catching on to it. I thank my parents, posthumously, for having made the right choice by not having this awful and cruel inhumane procedure carried out by lying and conniving doctors milking the proverbial cow of greed. Regards

Thank you for replying to us women posthumously, Thessalonian. I would have preferred a comment from a live person, but you seem to have a lot of acerbic wit in your posthumous state. It keeps us on our toes! and best wishes to you Peggy!
78. the women here in favor of circumcision
marc   (06.30.12)
make me sick. Mind your own business. Circumcision is a scam which amputates the most erogenous part of the penis in the name of superstition. The ''medical benefits'' are bogus propaganda. If you dont have a penis its none of your business. Keep your warped logic and silly ideas to yourselves.
79. If 2 out of 100 circumcision ends in castration
Miron ,   USA   (06.30.12)
due to malmpractice it worth stopping. Let us do it in adulthood as Abraham did. Child's health is more important than false "holyness". In other words Germans are trying to do the right thing, probably. Unfortunately, instead of letting Jewish parents sue the pants off from malicious bastard who cut child's flesh, which would be correct thing to do, they try to safeguard the system so that the culprit has another go, this time it would be what? Liver?
80. 78 Marc: If circumcision is not imortant, why did Moses
Rivkah   (06.30.12)
have to be circumcised as an adult along with his sons to work for the Lord in leading the Hebrews out of Egypt? Why did General Joshua insist on all the soldiers for the Hebrew nation be circumcised as adults before going to battle to take Canaan and the lands the Lord gave to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob and their descendants forever? Sounds like you are at the wrong internet site to me. You think the carnal aspects of life are more important than pleasing God and being in His camp. The Apostle Paul (Sha'ul of Tarsus) was an Orthodox Jew and even after he took the gospel (good news) of Rabbi Yeshua of Nazareth to the Gentiles, he circumcised Timothy who has half Jewish and half Greek. He said it was not necessary to be circumcised for salvation to others, but insisted someone who wanted to be his assistant be circumcised to present the gospel. If you were less interested in a thrill in sex or auto-eroticism than in obeying the Commandments of HaShem, you might be fit for the Kingdom of God. Moses would not have entered into God's Kingdom after death or been God's representative during his later lifetime if he had refused to be circumcised as an adult. The ELS Scripture matrix codes you can access on Facebook.com for www.warningusa.org show half of Jews go to heaven and half go to hell. 25 percent of Muslims come to know HaShem. Only 7 per cent of XTNS or 1 in 14 enter HaShem's Kingdom. Is that because most of them refuse to even be circumcised? If they don't want to obey HaShem in that, they probably are not obeying HaShem in other matters and grieve the Holy Spirit to the point that He leaves them in their apostasy. Sha'ul of Tarsus said it was not necessary for the Goyim to be circumcised, so I wonder if that is a mistranslation since he circumcised his assistant Timothy as an adult.
81. marc , yes , women have their say !
Charles ,   Petach Tikva   (06.30.12)
They prefer circumcised men , they enjoy the relations more .

I found this when searching secularism : You may be surprised to know that while most secularists are atheists, some secularists are actually believers in a faith. While they believe, they don't think that belief is a reason for special treatment.. So if you prefer , i'll call myself a secular atheist . Happy ?
83. Ora , 60 . I'm still , and will always be PROUD
Charles ,   Petach Tikva   (06.30.12)
to be a Jew , a secular atheist Jew . I have heard that the German interior minister does NOT intend to forbid religious circumcision . My TB was exagerated of course , but you have to know that charidi extremism will at the end , bring atheist secular extremism too . We can't always stay without reaction , tant va la cruche a l'eau qu'elle se casse ...
84. germanics are just absurd
The Great Khan ,   Kandahar,Afghanistan   (06.30.12)
yes they are absurd and there angry becoz they dont have anything to circumsize.Its tradition and law to circumsize a male when he is 8 days old atleast among my people so who cares what the fruitcakes of europe think
85. The Brit Prevents :
Moshe ,   Usa   (07.01.12)
1] Phimosis (tightening of the foreskin which can’t be drawn back] 2] Balanitis (inflammation) 3] Cancer (no cases reported whereas a significant occurrence exists for the uncircumcised) 4] and offers a low incidence of cervical cancer in Jewish women according to “The Jewish Connection” by M. Hirsh Goldberg (a Bantam Book, Stein & Day Publisher, December 1977, page 185) 5] deceases such as those caused in trench warfare of WWI , which re-popularized circumcision.and 6] Aids (HIV) is lessened for circumcised males. Let's pray for the health of all good germuns.

Sherlock Holmes ,   London England   (07.01.12)
The 18th Century Vilna Gaon said that 'Amalek is Germania'. Who am I to disagree?
87. Covenant of Abraham
Danny ,   London England   (07.01.12)
Circumcision is the Covenant of Abraham between man and G-d. It sanctifies the organ of procreation in the covenant that says as long as the people of Israel keep G-d Laws they will continue to exist as a People of G-d. Believers in the German 'master race' must find this concept very difficult. I hope the federal court or the European Court is more honest.
88. Vaccination?
Joseph ,   London UK   (07.01.12)
Most decisions for an 8 day old are made by his parents. Babies routinely rceive the MMR vaccination for measles, mumps, rubella, as well as polio and other vaccinations and various medical procedures. We do not wait until the child is 18 years old to decide. Circumcision by a fully qualified mohel or medical doctor does not harm the baby.
89. 82 Charles ,What makes you happy..
ORA ,   JERUSALEM   (07.01.12)
makes me happy. Why lie to you... calling yourself ,secular believer, would make me even more happy.
90. 83 Charles, thus the german ...
ORA ,   JERUSALEM   (07.01.12)
interior minister is less suicidal then i thought. Good to hear ,at least you are proud to be a Jew,not like many self hating Jews who want to abolish circumcision. Extremism settles nothing. We must learn to live together in peace
