But religious freedoms should end when it involves irreversible body modifications in blood rituals. Have a party like a Brit Shalom by all means when you name him. But let him decide when he's an adult if he wants penile reduction surgery. He'll still be Jewish if his mom is.

"we don't"? You mean YOU won't. Many have. We don't stone women any more either. Gruesome blood rituals have no place in the 21st century. Judaism will still flourish regardless of whether its young men have a foreskin in their pants.

Is it none of my business if another parent wants to cut their baby girl's genitals because their religion says they must? It's immoral, unethical & a clear breach of the child's human right to a whole body. You can practice your religion how you like but don't cut it into kids.
