To chop or not to chop?

Well, right, of course. If a part of your body is infected or otherwise malfunctioning, you treat it. The problem I have is with circumcision done routinely to perfectly healthy baby boys. When I have the time I'll link to a video the the Penn and Teller Bulls Hit program on circumcision, since they condensed a great deal of the same research I did into an easily-digested video format.

Although they completely missed out on the whole business of how circumcision got so darn popular in the U.S.

Eh, it's like vaccination really. Prevents infection.

Basically now that people wear clothes the evolutionary reason for the foreskin isn't valid. And with circumcision you're less likely to get a urinary tract infection, std's, and some other infections.
