I'm all for circumcision if there is a medical issue but to carry out this procedure carte blanche , in the name of religion, is wrong imo. Just to add fuel to the fire. The incidence of cervical cancer amongst Jewish women is far lower than in Christian women. The reason given is the circumcision of male Jewish children. Apparently the Jewish population is rising at it's fastest rate since the end of WW11.
Either that or Jewish women are not getting it as often.
