You are absolutely correct Genital mutilation amongst adults is their choice.
However, when forced on children, and even babies, it is nothing less than child abuse.
Europeans are perfectly healthy even though they have mostly abandoned these vile customs.
Some people would chop their babies arms off if they were told that is what God wanted - It's healthier - No more tennis elbow.

For me it's already been done. The covenant however has been nullified with the Christ's sacrifice on the cross and what it is now is more a tradition than anything else. Circumcision isn't all that bad and it isn't required of you're faith anymore.
That is one of the Mosaic laws that have been rendered void like the daily sacrifices that God drew up for the chosen ones.
Now the Christ has removed a lot of the rituals by His priesthood alone.

Circumcision goes beyond just hygiene. Lots of guys and gals prefer cut guys. They think the penis is more attractive cut vs. uncut. I had no say in the matter since my parents circumcized me a few days after I was born, but I don't have any problem with it.

Same Idea:
There's a guy running on the cliff and suddenly falls off the cliff and grabs a hold of the edge. Below him are rocks, the ocean, and death. He then yells out "Help! Is there anybody up there?" All of a sudden, the clouds part and out comes God on this huge chariot with angles carrying him over. God says "Let go and I will take you to heaven on my chariot." The guy thinks for a moment and says "Is there anybody else up there?"

I don't believe in it at all. Its a bunch of F-ing bull $hit. Why would he give it to use just for use to cut it off. Being clean is a bunch of bull to. Just wash it ever time you take a bath. If your a parent and it makes you squeamish to touch and hold your sons pinus until he can do it him self. You need to not be a parent.

I'd be a good little theist and do it. Because anything I may sacrifice in this lifetime, is all worth it because the reward I will receive in the eternal afterlife is much longer than the life here.
Fortunately I'm not a theist.

To answer your question..
I would say to God...
Why don't you chop your dick to show your faith in your parents...(or something like that)
And if he really does that..
Then I guess I have no choice...
Oh and I'll ask him if he'll attach it back...
