I don't have a restoration device to fix that. End the barbaric and superstitious blood sacrifice.

Religion is evil. Circumcision is evil.

TLC Tugger, Please dont be biased about and ignorant about circumcision.It may be a traditional and religious practice but medically its healthy. Unfortunately Accidents can happen. If you are prejudiced against Mulims let me enlightene you that It is compulsory for Jewish people. So dont tell me the smart Jews are babaric and stupid.

Yazid KL,
the theory you are speaking about is based on survey, which says circumcisied penis are more healthy, as compared to non-uncircumcised ones. the skin over penis maintains the moisture and as well as other stuff's after intercourse....., thus the risk of infection is higher in uncircumcised penis as compared to circumcised one, if you don't clean your penis properly.

so if you are unhygienic, then either you are circumcised or not.. you will get a infection.

anyways, i don't know, how hygienic things in Muslims religion are, but i know well, that where other religion's only concentrate on clean inner soul at place of worship, Muslim are often seen in Asia cleaning penis as a part of ritual 5 times a day...

I also want to accept that i never have attended a Mosque session, neither i have any idea... what really muslim do inside mosques..... but the news like Australian imam speaking of uncovered meat make me think, perhaps in mosques people do discuss sexual issues and education...

And last issue,... in Judeo-Christian culture... to get circumcisied is not must, its recommanded. please consider the difference, and the issue is well discussed in many sites, which do research in old hebrew documents.

If your interest, opinion or obsession extends beyond your own penis, ...what are you gay?
Get over it. It's a non-issue. Who gives a damn really!

Actually muslims and jews believe they cannot enter heaven if they are not circumcised. As do many orthodox christians. Which is why most upper-class WASPs are circumcised!

Interesting comment up there that has slipped by pretty much unobserved. With all the uproar and outrage over 'female genital mutilation', why is there no equal outrage over male genital mutilation? It is the height of hypocricy to revere the one as a sacred emblem of your special relationship with God, and then call the other barbaric. And by the way, although male genital mutilation is customary in the US for purportedly medical reasons and performed on virtually all male babies, there is no Christian denomination which I have ever heard of which demands it for religious reasons.

I believe the line is from Shaw's Julius Caesar: 'He is but a barbarian, and thinks the customs of his tribe are the laws of nature.'

The circumcision done today is not what was described in the Bible or Torah. The circumcision done today involves a far more extensive cutting of foreskin than what god had asked for in the Holy books. Before A.D. 100, circumcision involved only a namesake cutting of the tip of the foreskin that normaly hangs out when the penis is flacid. This circumcision was not nearly as painful and didn't remove much sexual pleasure sensations. After about A.D. 100, the jewish rabbis went beyond what god had asked for, and made it law that all circumcisions involve stripping the infant's penis of its skin almost half way down the shaft and basically cutting more than half of the foreskin off. This excessive cutting is known as 'periah'. The rabbis made this change for 2 reasons: 1.) to prevent jewish athletes from disguising their circumcision at the Greek Olympics which they were doing by stretching their left-over foreskins 2.) To prevent circumcised men from 'uncircumcising' themselves as adults as a few were doing by streching techniques of the left-over foreskin.
What those rabbis did around A.D. 100 is an example of putting your will over another human being's will, even at the risk of increasing pain and side effects, decreasing sexual pleasure, and altering god's original command of a more benign circumcision.
This overzealous cut is the only form of circumcision that Mohammed saw among the jews around A.D. 600 and adopted when he began the muslim religion.
What you do to infants and children, they will do back to society. Communities that circumcise their males, such as the muslims, also have a general habit of putting their will over the will of people of other religions and societies.
