Circumcision - a serious discussion

[Mr. dB]

they made a decision based on thier beliefs. the comment about sheep implies no individual judgement and decision making on thier own.

Well, that's a reasonable assumption, since most circumcisions were done with "no individual judgement and decision making". Just following the societal norm at the time.

Unless they are Jewish, the "made a decision based on their beliefs" does not hold water. There are no other belief systems prevalent in the US that require circumcision. If you come from a Christian background, circumcision was deemed unnecessary from the time of St. Paul forward.

 

[Mr. dB]

there is no valid arguement for either side, only preference.

Cutting off healthy parts of the human body at birth goes beyond preference. It is unethical.

 

[Mr. dB]

...still angry.

Forskin is one of the most sensitive parts of the body.
We are talking about the penis here...

Yes, it was even worse then those. Watch the tape...I was shocked.

If it's the one I've seen, that boy makes noises that remind me of the film of the Russian soldier getting his head cut off by Chechen rebels.

Brotha, you have crucial insight into the medical field, that I do not...I can only reply with atricles that you can cut down. You have points, but it would take me till 4 in the morning to validate them.
If this was a court, the opinion of the credited doctor would supercede that of the anonymous chat room poster (you). You could be a diesel mechanic from Tulsa for all I know (but I think you're legit)
So I'll drop the premise of if a child can feel/register pain that recent from birth, purely on the point that I don't have enough information to proceed, and I can't except your information expeditously to concure or dispute.
I've never heard these points till now....

lmao!

 

[Ulcasterdropout]

lmao!

what's so funny?

I know very little about the medical field, Brotha's a damn doctor...but he brings points that I have never heard before, and other doctors have disagreed about. So, lack of information on my part, I can't argue that premise, so I dropped it...

He said he's a doctor. If he is or is not, he knows more then me about medicine.
Now, It wasn't a capitualation...
The premise is not a key factor of my arguement of infant circumcision not being necessary and/or just.
