Bible Question: Galatians 5:2,3 and Romans 4 exclude biblical permission for circumcision, so how can American parents choose to circumcise their sons even when there is NO medical reason either? |
Bible Answer: I was pregnant with my son before I became a Christian so I haven't felt the need to look up anything Biblically on this issue. However, all the baby books I read when I was pregnant said it is psychologically better for the child to look like his father, so my child is not circumcised. On a personal note. I think circumcision is like plastic surgery. Do we as parents have the right to change a child's nose or cheek bones because we don't like the way it looks? This is a decision I'm leaving up to my child. |
