Quote by: Anmon  You presented a paragraph from one page of a fifty year old book which recommended circumcision for women if there are some medical problems from too much masturbation(which I admit is silly).
So can you now try to explain how this is any proof of any wide spread modern Christian practices of female circumcison as you presented before, with the words 'must be a serious Christian issue?'
Your original post
What was actually in the book itself -
"There is an anatomical factor that sometimes causes irritation about the clitoris and thus encourages a manipulation of the delicate reproductive organs.
Although such cases are not very common, evidence of irritation of these tissues is sufficient reason for a young woman to consult a Christian physician.
Often times the remedy for this situation consists of a minor surgical operation known as a circumcision."
So basically you pulled out an old 1950's morals guide for women, and presented it as evidence of some supposed wide spread practice(in your original post) of possible Christian circumcision of women.
Your own words 'must be a serious Christian issue' have hung you by your own petard.
This is not a common religious practice, or a serious issue with Christians, now or ever.
You may of course have us confused with some sects of Muslims.
'must have been done by some Christian guy'
Yes it was-
In the evidence you provided, it was not performed by a priest, it was done by a physician, admittedly a Christian one.
But theres no law against a physician being a Christian is there.
