Really? So without a medical reason to do such, you think it is ok to put a baby in pain because of an ancient myth? If a myth told you to tattoo a religious symbol on a baby would you do it?
If a religion told them to cut off a finger or toe you'd be fine with that too?
Please explain to me where the baby's consent is? And please tell me why the government has a right to punish her for wanting to prevent pain to her child?
In Islam and Christianity as well, in Africa, it is common for men to sew girl's vaginas up to keep them pure, and as pre teens the communities make them publicly strip so they can stick their fingers in the girl's vaginas to check their "purity".
I'd suggest you read Ayaan Hersi Ali's book before you go talking about mutilating kids being ok.
Medical reasons NOT religious superstitions should be the only reason you cause a baby pain. Circumcision is a barbaric act done in the name of superstition.
Genital mutilation of kids of either sex is sick, PERIOD.
