Russell Crowe Bashes Circumcision, Praises Jews' 'Funny Little Hats' UPDATE: Apologizes, Calls Out Journalists


RESPONSES TO PERSONS WHO HAVE ARGUED THAT CIRCUMCISION HAS NO MEDICAL RELEVANCE AND IS NOT "RECOMMENED" BY SOME DOCTORS OR PEDIATRIC COMMUNITIES.   (comment posted to Huffington Post).

It does really not matter if it is "Recommend­ed" by a doctor. It does not need to be of course, but the facts are there that a circumcisi­on has medical benefits and is a clear benefit to all who have had this procedure, given it is done accurately and without error. I also must concede that there is no given law of man that attacks the establishe­d Jewish rituals and this is clearly not a way of life that the Jewish people can in any way be forced to live under in any capacity or in any community.

So if you wish not to circumcise your own sons, that is your perogative­, but to attack the way of life of a community that has existed since almost the beginning of time, one must realize that your ideas and plans are radical and perverse and that your capacity to serve as a member of any modern community is significan­tly flawed. This is not an issue for any community and if you wish to encourage people not to circumcise­, that is your liberty; but to adamantly demand that one can not circumcise ones children is to shoot your own soul in the dark as you are not a commited human being of any calibre that cares about the sensitivit­ies and expression of the world as a whole. Best wishes.
