    But it was normalized through Judaism and Christianity.

    Also criticizing Jewish people is no different than criticizing religion as a whole which this sub generally does.

      Sort of. It is a religious practice in Judaism, and was normalized in the USA by the Kellogg wellness horseshit as a cure for masturbation, and has almost nothing to do with Christianity. He was ostensibly a Seventh Day Adventist, but his actual beliefs and practices didn’t really resemble any organized religion at the time.

        I learned the story of circumcision through a Christian church and was told it was god’s way of promising he’ll never directly punish humanity again. Kinda like the rainbow thing with the flood.
