Yes it should and must.
Here is NO medical or health reason to circumcise boys that wouldn't also apply to girls. Girls have to use soap and water to clean down there too (not all do that very well either, you can smell bad tuna five feet away). Girls get infections too, infact for every ONE uncircumcised boy that gets an UTI, NINE girls get one. If you circumcise 1000 boys it would mean that you prevented 9 UTIs, which could have more easily been treated with antibiotics just like the girls get.
STDs Sweden has never had widespread circumcision and their incidence of STDs is fifty times less than the US. (Sweden has now banned circumcision of children)
So then we have aesthetics, how it looks. What? Is this something that is going to show on his senior portrat? Who cares what it looks like? It is there for him to use for the physical act of love with his mate. To her it will not make any difference at all if she loves him, if it does matter to her she is just a shallow b!tch and he will be better off with some one else. If his penis isn't right for her, very few other things about him will right either.
Ok now we are back to religion. The reason for circumcision is that G*d said it had to be done, well at least that is what some old man that had been out in the desert sun said. Where else does G*d say take something that belongs to someone unaware and give it to me? It is all a cruel hoax.
IF G*d wanted some thing he would want it given willingly not taken from someone that can't resist. The term candy from a baby comes to mind.

No it shouldn't include circumcision which isn't a religious symbol. It is a religous practice and it is still a right to follow your religious practice in many places all over the world. Not only that some people do it for reasons other than religion.

non secular symbolism comes below loose speech....does it no longer? How long do the co-workers communicate related to the soccer interest or the baseball interest or American Idol or in spite of? in case you shrink talking approximately faith, you should shrink different subjects of verbal substitute. That being pronounced, below loose speech, no-you are able to still be made to experience that their's is an inferior faith -- or experience compelled into listening to somebody's diatribe a pair of specific faith. Proselytizing should not be allowed in any respect. friendly conversations -- sure; stress or diatribes -- no. surely no longer. the comparable regulations could stick to as used for sexual harrassment...if the recipient of the non secular speech feels uncomfortable and says no, then the non secular speech could end. i'm a non secular Roman Catholic...i do no longer tolerate any damaging comments approximately Catholicism, Judaism, Islam or the different communities in my presence.

No, and for two reasons.
1) It's done more for medical reasons these days.
2) No one goes around with that part showing in public, so the only way to know if a guy has been circumsized is to ask him.

While circumcision was traditionally a religious practice, its application has far transcended that and is now basically a practice of hygiene and health, not to mention aesthetics.

circumcision is unnatural,you are born with a foreskin,unless for extreme medical reasons, you should die with it.most animals with an external penis have foreskins[notice dogs]they don't get cicumcised,religions use it as a badge,pity muslim females and someother backward societys where it is done for traditional purposes only.

while it's true that it used to be done for religious reasons (and still is for some) now it's done for health reasons.
even if that were not true i don't think any government should be able to tell you that you can't do something that is part of your religious tradition.

I don't think so, since circumcision is also done for medical reasons too.
