Don't do it!!!
The foreskin is natural and keeps your pecker happy. Also it is done to mark people.

It's never too late to gete circumcised although the recovery time might be a bit more for an older person. Do what you think is right. Christianity is more about love and doing whats right than being cut.

NO, you can get circumcised AT ANY AGE
CIRCUMCISION IS VERY BENEFICIAL, its cleaner, healthier and several prestigious research institutions have proved that circumcised men have less risk of contracting STD's such as AIDS-HIV, syphilis or herpes.
Uncircumcised penises are difficult to keep clean, and more prone to infections and penile cancer, studies have shown.
A circumcised penis is naturally clean and virtually free from urinary infections. You will not have to worry again with careful washing of your penis.
About STD's:
As I said, several studies carried out by prestigious research bodies have proved that uncircumcised penises are more prone to infections and contraction of STD's, including AIDS-HIV. It has been confirmed that circumcised men are up to 70% less likely to be infected than those who are uncircumcised. Have a look at this site: http://www.torontodailynews.com/index.php/HealthNews/2006121404Circumcision
As for women, studies also show that circumcision also protects female partners from AIDS-HIV and other STD's. Browse this article: http://www.hopkinsmedicine.org/Press_releases/2006/02_08_06.html
About sensitivity of a circumcised penis:
NO medical or physiological study has ever shown that circumcision reduces sensitivity, opposed to common belief. It is completely FALSE that circumcision reduces penis sensitivity. The American Academy of Paediatrics (AAP) confirms this on their web site; have a look at: http://www.aap.org/pubed/zzzjzmemh4c.htm
Circumcision is an easy and nowadays *painless* procedure, which has many benefits, and virtually no risks.
Circumcision is NOT an amputation. Circumcision is NOT comparable at all to female circumcision, which is something completely different.
Circumcision rates are INCREASING nowadays, both in the United States and overseas. Many African, Asian and Latin American countries with little circumcision tradition are starting to promote the procedure to help to reduce the AIDS-HIV infection rates.
Finally, this site has a lot of useful and *unbiased* information. Make sure you have a good look: http://www.circinfo.net

It is NOT the mark of the beast, where did he come up with that one? I had a friend that was circumcised at the age of 24. He did it for health reasons and was engaged to get married. There are many, many sites you can research it on. Make sure you are sure first and if you are a Christian then you can also seek wisdoom from the Lord and counsel from others you trust.

It is not "the mark of the beast" Give me a break! However it is done at all ages. It is very minimal surgery done under local, out-patient. This is necessary for good hygiene and don't let anyone tell you differently. It is NOT clean. I've been there and it is impossible to keep clean with it intact. Get surgery a.s.a.p. This is only an ancient Jewish custom as far as the religious implications go. There is NO "Beast"

You can do it, yes. But remember to think about the following 5 weeks after the operation. I got circumcised when I was 10, I felt like dying! It burns, it aches it... everything!! But it's not so bad after the 5 following weeks, oh yeah, your walk will be very embarrassing in that 5 weeks, believe me...

Circumcision will reduce ur sexual pleasure to certain extent. but it is convenient in old age since the urine will not lodge in the foreskin. but during orgsm u will not get full satisfaction which may lead u to several attempts. some say circumcision prevents STD since no smear will be there after coition to be wiped of by ur clothes. circumcision is not advisable anyway.

My grandfather is a strong Christian, and he says circumcision is an insult to God - it's like saying that God made a mistake and we have to fix it for Him! The Bible specifically says that Christians do NOT need to have it done.

No, but you will be sore for a few days. Let your friend practice their religion as they see fit. You do what you think is best. I would suggest doing research before you get cut.
