And given that assumption, what you believe is mutilation, is called out specifically in the Bible. And that doesn’t even take into account the fact (yes, FACT) that male circumcision has been proven to be better at the prevention of acquiring certain diseases.

In the future, please try to be a little more respectful. I’m not Jewish, but I found your statement (and especially the way you phrased it) highly offensive. And we’re not talking about a tiny minority of the population who take offense at the drop of a hat, or any possible interpretation of words. Your expression was highly inflammatory.

Of course, you can still mutilate your childs genitals in California. To ban that would be racist.
