    The male is circumcised in Judaism to show that his most important body part belings to Hashem.

    This is the body part that desires physical pleasure the most and we swear to G-d Almighty that it, too, is his. That is also why there is a severe prohibition against masturbation in Judaism.

    Women are more sensitive and G-d fearing naturally. At least that is the Jewish outlook. It is for this reason as well that woman need not cover their head while men need a head covering at all times.

    You seem sincere. Check out my youtube channel. It has a lot of good questions and answers about basic and more advanced Jewish concepts. If you ever want me to make a video about something specifically, just let me know.

    May G-d Almighty bless you in all that you do.

    That zionist?

    He is hardly representative of Judaism. Advice from him is propaganda for the zionist cause dressed in holy robes of religion. "Advanced Jewish concepts" my foot.

    A trojan horse. Religious bait, political payload. Loaded with racist philosophy.

    One big thing here that I don't think we can ignore, is the practicality behind the ritual that would lead to it being a common practice in the first place.

    The practice is mostly for sanitation purposes. Living in a hot, dry, and sandy reagion of the world, it is difficult to maintain proper sanitation and hygine.

    Women would not encounter quite the same problems. Furthermore, where there has always been dispute as to how much sensitivity the ritual takes away from a man--it is not completely desensitized. My understanding is that there is signicantly greater damage and risk of infection when practiced on women. Desensitizing is one thing, but the health risk was probably a major motivator for not doing it to women.

    In a dry arid and sandy region, where one cannot bathe with regularity, it makes sense to practice the ritual on men because it reduces the risk of infections and major problems.

    There are sometimes pretty practical reasons for things in the religions like this.

    I forgot to say I'm glad to see you alive and well.

    I was thinking about your young butt being hauled off to the front, never to be heard from again.

    Don't die for Israel son. I truly hope you're going to live longer than the Jewish state will.

    You and your friends are the future of Israel.

    We need to do to stop the attacks a bit. This is getting pretty crazy. We're getting a little worried about war crimes charges. and yes, I am alive, and go out to visit the U.S. soon.

    Ah, my favorite fearmonger. As I've pointed out to you before, I am not a zionist according to the definition of the word. I do love G-d's chosen "nation of priests," the Jewish people and will defend their right to the land until the day I die. G-d Himself wants us there - it doesn't really matter what the UN, US, or EU have to say about it.

    But get your facts straight. Zionists are generally secular Jews. I know actual facts are something you avoid, but I didn't want the rest of the populace to be confused by your blatant antisemitism yet again.

    Please, another link from www.ihatejews.com - that site you run.
