awesome we need to stop the religious from mutilating the children of this nation, people think children are *theirs* a mere possession, but fact is, the child has HUMAN RIGHTS and deserves to not be cut by some weirdo in the name of religion.
Ban the practice in america. the religious need to be controlled they are far out of line, especially practices like this.
the jewish bris and catholic circumcision is mutilation of another person in the name of religion, nothing more.
