Headline: "**German circumcision ban unites religions, worries doctors"
Reporting Vehicle: The Chicago Tribune
My Note:
Circumcision for boys is not only a tradition but a world wide practice. In the United States, and based on what doctors and nurses told me personally, 99% of the boys born in America get their extra part removed immediately after birth. This is a fact across the board, meaning it covers all religions, Judaism, Christianity and Islam; The Divine religions. And it covers others faiths, Hinduism, Buddhism, and so on and so forth. In Europe and the Middle East, my understanding is that the practice is mostly done through followers of Judaism and Islam. Now, it seems based on AP and this article attached from the Chicago Tribune, that the law in Germany in not clear regarding this matter and accordingly society leaders particularly of Judaism and Islam need to raise it legally and demand clarity. Circumcision according to medical reports is healthy, normal, and does not and never affected any performance whatsoever or any human aspect. For girls, it is a different story, no religion or faith allows it, and it is practiced in backward pockets in the Middle East and other parts of the world, as far as I’m concerned, and it violates -again according to all doctors and medical scholars-the female right to have normal healthy, emotional and sexual life.
