It is odd that many just follow along with tradition, no matter how barbaric.
You know what is odd? Someone said this exact sentence to me not even 5 minutes ago relating to hunting.
THAT was a deja-vu moment.

Has more to do with "don't alter my body unless I say so"I am starting to get a very odd feeling that.....
This is turning into a giant swordfight, debating who has the better johnson.
I am starting to get... uncomfortable.
It really seems that some people feel strongly on this.
Which to me, is odd.

Brunner & suddarths textbook of medical-surgical nursing by smeltzer.FAIL...where is the data?
I approach it from the perspective that protecting property rights is a legitimate function of government, and our bodies are our primary tangible property. Punishing aggression against those property rights would therefore be a reasonable thing to support.I have issues with the whole concept of cutting on babies junk to begin with, but something that needs to be legislated? Can anyone say government over-reach much?

My two brothers and I didn't get butchered and have not even once had any type of issues you speak of...hygiene is key.

How does that even relate to the subject at hand?Your right.
We should ban alcohol too.
That would probably work out great.
The issue is forcible, permanent mutilation, without consent.
I think vaccinations are a good analogy to contend with.
I chalk this up to parental right to decide their child's health care. No new laws.
However! To those who support a ban, I think vaccinations are a good analogy to contend with. Can you conclude one should be banned and the other should not? Vaccines:
Now, with all that said, I still feel its a parent's duty to decide. I'm against vaccinating my family, but I support others rights to make a different decision. I'd rather get people to see the light for themselves.
- Human civilization survived for tens of thousands of years without them.
- Many people feel they are barbaric.
- There is documented and admitted dangers to administering them. (Brain damage, death, seizures, neurological disorders... and less obvious long term effects).
- They are not necessary.
- The child can give no consent.
- Invasive procedures given without consent can be viewed as an act of force against another.
Bans aren't really appropriate for circumcision or for vaccinations. And banning these procedures would create a black market, would it not?
If you are against these practices, you should advocate against them using education. Stick it to Big Pharma and Big Scalpel using the free market.
BTW, gun forums are good places to expose bad medicine.
How many children have died because of their foreskins? Yeah yeah, HPV...well, if children are getting HPV because of their foreskins, then some other laws are being broken. Otherwise, it's a simple matter of hygiene. Irreversible body modifications to save 10 seconds in the bath are NOT analogous with vaccinations which help us to fend of deadly viruses.
