    I'm not saying you can't raise your kid to be Jewish, but a circumcision cannot be undone and it's something your child should do of their own consent. A circumcision does not make one Jewish.

      You clearly know very little about religious Judaism if you're saying that it isn't a requirement for being Jewish. It's one of if not the most important aspects of being Jewish in a biblical sense.

        Yet I know a number of uncut and religious Jews. Rituals can change.

          I legitimately don't believe you, if you were a religious Jew you'd be circumcised. There are a lot of things Jews aren't allowed to do if they aren't circumcized the biggest of which is being burried in a jewish cemetery.

      Of course it doesn’t. That does not mean it isn’t a significant and meaningful ritual for many Jews and Muslims.

        I mean sure, but like, it's a ritual that permanently alters and affects sexual enjoyment so that's why I'd let people opt into it when they're old enough. Traditions and rituals CAN be changed.
