      Indeed the rights of the child, to be fed and sheltered etc. are progressively lost as she, he or they gains cognition and the power to maintain them for him/her/themself.

      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.

      wow. think about what you're saying. you're saying that fathers betraying their sons to genital mutilation is of the essence of judaism. bris milah as currently practiced (radical mutilation of whole foreskin not just tip) seems to go back no further than rabbinic period ca 200AD

      Which is radically different from the way circumcision was done for the first 3,000 years of Jewish history, when only the tip of foreskin that naturally (and w/out pulling) overhangs the glans was removed.

      It was not a "medical" procedure in 140 A.D. Only from the late 19th century. Traditions evolve too. Jewish circumcision evolved from something quite minimal to something much more extensive. Today it's involving again, to something that doesn't involve cutting a newborn at all.

      Did those who removed only the part of the foreskin that overhangs the glans for the first 3,000 years of Jewish history have it wrong? If not, why not go back to that?

          Because that still removes the ridged band of specialised nerves, and so is just as damaging as full removal.

          I wouldn't say "just as damaging," but still wrong. I'm sure you appreciate the point of those 2 questions is that Jewish circumcision is not the immutable practice many think it to be, and it should not be for others to decide if a given male is/was "correctly" circumcised.
