ok, so with mounting medical evidence showing that with the exception of two rare medical conditions circumcision is...unhealthy and retarded, a lot of more liberal and reform jews are performing a naming ceremony called brit shalom that doesn't involve circumcision. my family being one of em, i think that this is a step in the right direction especially with the current surgical procedure of the bris being much more radical than that in the bible, so i just wanted to know what you guys thought about that.

I congratulate those who have chosen to maintain the inherent right to bodily integrity of their child instead of unecessarily mutilating his or her genitals with circumcision.

i agree, people of my faith have changed before and they should again.
