Over 80% of US males have their human rights violated before they're even 3 days old. Oh the humanity.

If you're not trying to justify your position then why even bring this up?

Wtf kind of argument is this.. FIRST, it's not part of your person. SECOND, it falls off on its own.



You have no reason for your position other than "I don't care" so obviously there is no changing your mind. I'm just judging you for being dense.

Well it is what you set yourself up for when you thrust yourself into this kind of discussion.

Actually, if your piece is clearer and more logical than mine, I would be open to changing my views. Debate is an opportunity to judge the quality of our own views, it would be foolish to write off other views that are more logical just because it doesn't align with my former views. For example, I used to view circumcision similarly to how you do before I really started debating and thinking on the matter.

Quote:
- I happen to know someone who had to get it done for medical purposes.
- I happen to know he suffered pretty bad afterwards.
- I'm happy my parents chose to have me done when I was a newborn.
Anecdotal evidence. Toss it in the trash. https://thelogicofscience.com/2016/0...lly-worthless/

I could use botched circumcisions that resulted in castration as a point against the practice, but since that's more an issue with medical training and equipment, I won't fall back on it. I'd appreciate it if you at least attempted to match that kind of intellectual honesty.

Quote:
- I noted that the vast majority of pro dicks are snipped.
- I noted that over 80% of US males are snipped.
Neat! How does this establish a moral grounding of the practice though? Are you suggesting that popular things are inherently good?

Quote:
- I noted that it's done to females purely to limit their sexuality.
Stop equating male and female circumcision.

Just stop fellas.

Oh, and I've witnessed two births up close. It doesn't just fall off. And you're calling me dense? Also it contains two of your arteries along with a vein and it's most certainly a "part of you" up until they CUT it off.

Let me know if you disagree with any of these points.
I don't. That's why I haven't addressed them.

It's more your argumentative tactics and reasoning behind your stance than the actual stance itself. Can you at least try to accurately comprehend people's points that aren't your own?

It dries up and falls off after a certain amount of time, even though the trend is to cut it off before then.

If someone never has a conversation about one without bringing up the other, it suggests that they equate the two on some level. Or maybe they want to use it as reasoning to dismiss opposing opinions a la "all lives matter."

Really? Maybe not, in the time frame you want because you have something against human nature... Tell me how if it doesn't fall of naturally why we aren't all walking around with the stump they leave behind after cutting.

It really is amazing the lengths you'll go through to argue points based on opinion when there are facts that contradict you.
