| “ | I am confident that my people have such an abundance of life-enhancing, life-affirming and mind-opening traditions, that our identity and sense of cultural self-heed will happily survive our outgrowing of circumcision, a cruel relic which has always felt to me like an aberration at the heart of my religion. – Dr. Jenny Goodman (Challenging Circumcision: A Jewish Perspective)[1] |
