The problem with the Jews is all caused by male circumcision.
It causes resentment and frustration. Circumcision should be abolished, then the Jews will eventually recover and become decent human beings.

Ritual genital mutilation of babies, practiced by anyone is a fucking terrible thing.
Dear Tigertim, please fuck off and take your anti-semitic views with you. Your disappearance from the affairs of humanity would raise the sum of human happiness. You blight society with your presence and foul the atmosphere with your beliefs. Do one good thing with your life and hide away from decent people. Where you go is irrelevent, the only thing that matters is that you go.
I agree with Canadia, Mike, and Rubber Chicken, but I don't share the OP's sentiment that Jews are not decent human beings. Circumcision is a medical procedure and should only be done for medically justified reasons. That is simply common sense.
This should be in RSTDT. It could even be an RSTDT/CSTDT twofer if you suggest that circumcision is a conspiracy to ensure that Jews remain "not decent human beings".
every difficult problem has a solution that's obvious, easy to understand, simple to explain, and completely wrong.
which is not to defend infant circumcision, no. leave that for the kid to decide once he's old enough to meaningfully consent to body modification. but still, just, no.
Whoa! Aren't very many, if not most, male Americans circumcised?
Shouldn't it be banned for them too?
Come to think of it, what do they do with all those severed foreskins every year? Here's hop[eing they don't get into the food chain life the horse meat did.
I agree that circumcision should be abolished, but not for the reasons you listed, dumbfuck.
How about the fact that it is not medically necessary?
" Circumcision should be abolished, then the Jews will eventually recover and become decent human beings."
I can tell you were circumcised.
@Xotan
I was thinking the same thing. That may explain the American male's preoccupation with guns and violence.
I don't really know much about the subject, but I do believe more and more American parents are choosing not to have their sons circumcised these days.
"Circumcision should be abolished"
That is the only part of this post with which I can agree. With few exceptions, there is no need for genital mutilation.
The rest of what was said is pure and utter BS.
Three or four generations of American males were routinely circumcised as newborns. Our nation was at its peak then. When it stopped, our standing and our fortunes declined. Therefore, foreskins cause national deterioration.
PROTIP (Pun may or may not be intended): Routine circumcision of males in the US.
Sooooo... the doctor who circumcised you was Jewish eh, Timmy?
Otherwise you wouldn't care .
I guess my mindset - seeing as I'm British, where the practice is restricted to Jews & Muslims, - is somewhat different then; we Brits are known to be very tolerant after all...!
" The problem with the Jews is all caused by male circumcision."
You're mom didn't mind, I think she actually liked it shit-for-brains.
In New Zealand circumcision was the norm for all children when I grew up, and is still widespread today.
It makes us so resentful and frustrated we have one of the most peaceful and laid-back cultures in the world. Presumably if we stoppped we'd all fall into an irreversable coma and our womenfolk would escape to roam free.
What problem with the Jews? That half of them are circumcised? If that is the problem, then yes, you're right, at least in your first sentence. Then it goes downhill...
I'd guess that people, who have (almost) never had a foreskin, miss it like they miss a third eye. However, I still think that any manipulation of the human body, that is not medically justified, should be decided by the person him/her-self, when s/he is more or less adult.
Btw, does this "problem" affect Jewish women too? If so, how?
The problem with the Jews is all caused by male circumcision.
Then that must be true for most non-Jewish males in the United States and billions of other non-Jews, from Australians to Yemenis, the world over.
Uh-huh....
and what about those of us who are circumcised but not Jewish? Are we hideous monsters, too?
And I don't think it should be abolished, but I'm fairly apathetic about it, really. Freedom of choice and all that. I mean, we don't ask babies if they want the vitamin K shot, do we?
@ Canadia
You know, some of the anti-circumcision stuff could be featured here.
Like you decrying an entire culture for painlessly removing a frankly useless patch of skin prone to dirt and infection.
Oh yeah. I went there. Just because you were born with it doesn't mean it's good for you. See: Appendix.
What's up with all the anti-circumcision people here? I don't think it makes a difference in anything except religion and politics, besides a few medical issues. I mean, sure, there's consent and all, but I don't remember consenting if I wanted to be born, much less who to or where. And you guys care more about a flap on skin on the human penis? Most circumcised males seem to not even care, while many babies and former babies would like to have a word about being born at all, and under what conditions. Think about abandoned kids in Africa. I'm pretty sure they wouldn't have consented to be born there and die five.

@Leliel
Because pointless genital mutilation that decreases sexual sensation is a good thing, or so I'm supposed to be bullied into believing by appeals to traditions of a poisonous culture and threats of posting things to FSTDT. By all means, post them here, I already do.
Regarding being born with things that aren't good for you. You were born with fingers capable of typing in the defense of the aforementioned pointless genital mutilation. This was neither good for you, nor the rest of us. Someone should have cut THOSE off when you were an infant.
@Canadia:
Are you really so obsessed about your penis that you consider it morally wrong for parents to choose to have their children circumcised? Do you think you're being persecuted because you have a foreskin?
I've read a lot of really weird stuff on FSTDT comments, but your stuff here really comes close to taking the cake.
I was born with earlobes. What purpose do they serve?
I'm very much attached to my foreskin.
If I wasn't meant to have a foreskin, I would have been born without it.
A thought: if the Abrahamic 'God' thinks circumcision is so necessary, and of course he made his 'creation' in his image, who circumcised God?
A thought II:

'I believe circumcision demonstrates the depth of intimacy God wants to have with his people. '
And fundies go on & on about they being the 'Bride', do they not...? Even males ...?!
Their death-grip on that part of Leviticus 'cherrypicked', merely to justify their own bigorty & homophobia. Nope, no hypocrisy on their part , nosiree. (pun may or may not be intended) [/advanced sarcasm incorporating wordplay technique learned from Doug Piranha]
@Anon-e-moose :
Like most humans, I was born with a gall bladder.
Several years ago, the medication I was taking for my chronic medical condition reacted badly with my gall bladder and caused me to suffer severe pancreatitis, so it ended up being removed.
I think it's safe to say I wasn't meant to have a gall bladder. The "you're born with is, so you're meant to have it" argument is horseshit.
You, and Canadia, are looking at circumcision through a purely religious lens, as if nobody is circumcised for secular reasons (medical reasons and/or hygiene).
@Kevin Klawitter
The fact that medication reacted badly in no way means you weren't meant to have what it reacted badly with, mind you, you also weren't meant to have anything in the first place. You simply do, or did.
Don't lump me in with the weab eurotrash, by the way, because 'meants' were never my argument. My argument is against forcing body modification on defenseless infants for any non-medical reason.
This would be very quickly apparent if your medical condition wasn't severe autism.
Problem is that the evidence for the medical benefits is shaky, it sure ain't painless and exposes the child to risk from unnecessary surgery and anaesthesia.
"Are you really so obsessed about your penis that you consider it morally wrong for parents to choose to have their children circumcised?"
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
