Yes, but it's taboo (this will get downvoted hard) to point out that neither the Christian nor Jewish communities are involved in such activities.
(Not that Christians and Jews as a group are sinless, of course.)
- homonculus1 11y agoChristians and Jews are pretty heavily involved in child genital mutilation.
- cpr 11y agoYes, but circumcision doesn't seem to have any long-term effects on genital function. Yes, there are arguments back and forth in the medical community, but it's not an obvious mutilation.
- retbull 11y agoYou are wrong sorry. Plenty of Christian mutilation of female genitalia is permanently disfiguring and removes their ability to have pleasure during sex. Any mutilation is horrible just because it isn't so bad does not excuse it at all.
- cpr 11y agoI'm sorry, but I've never heard in all my decades of life about female mutilation among Christians. Can you point to some credible evidence?

- dougmany 11y agoI have found in life that when people say obvious, they really mean unexamined. If you have the courage to honestly know the damage done, you will see mutilation.
