>>15405260>Their argument was essentially, "Jesus was circumcised and we should all strive to be like him in whatever way we can"This is just an American (((Christian))) thing.
For almost all of church history in every other country, circumcision was either not recommended or outright banned.
Say what you will about the ancient Catholic Church, they weren’t letting people cut up their dicks. Religious circumcision is banned under Orthodox Catholicism.
Depending on how you interpret Galatians, Paul either says circumcision is either a sin or simply not required.
If it’s optional, literally nobody would choose it, so it’s a moot point.
Also, the circumcision given to Jesus (Milah) is nothing like American (((circumcision))).
So once again, why? What’s the benefit to marking the goys in blood?
