Dude, circumstision is exactly that, it's children's mutilation. For non-believers there's no difference between mutilating children's weeners, or this practise. Of course, you wil not agree with me, we've been there before. Your reaction to this muslim rite, for a non-believer like me, is pure hypocritical.

Both practises, this rite, and the cutting off a piece of a baby's weener, are barbaric in my book. Funny how Christians condemn other religion's insane bloody rites while praising their own insane bloody rites.
