    You’re ignoring what I’m saying. I never said that Christians were bound by anything. In fact I explicitly said otherwise.

    The circumcision is never at the church, it’s always after at a hospital if the person is not already circumcised. If you never knew that I’m sorry but it’s what happens. And I’m not really going to bother with providing you evidence. You’re clearly not going to believe whatever I post as you clearly don’t read what I write anyway. You can just go look up rates of circumcision in America. Have a nice day.

      The fact that many men, religious and otherwise, happen to be circumcised in a country where many Christians live does not make it part of the religion.

      Why would I believe your unsupported claims that are contrary to lots of evidence, my studies, and my own lived experience?

      I hope you learn one day that making generalizations about groups of people based on your own vague notions is neither good nor kind.

        that’s literally what you’re doing. Your evidence is a quote from the bible that is both the opposite of what it says in multiple other locations in the bible, but also the opposite of actual teachings in actual churches. You’re making generalizations about the group based on just a few short sentences rather than looking at the entire religion as a whole.
