'''Genital cutting in Christianity''' was rejected by the Church Fathers at the [[Council at Jerusalem]] which was held at in or about 49 A.D.

[[Circumcision]] is widely believed to be a good "Christian value" by a ''few '' Christians in different parts of the world, including the United States, South Korea, Africa and The the Philippines. Christian advocates of male infant circumcision often cite the alleged [[Abrahamic covenant|covenant between god and Abraham]] as outlined in the book of Genesis (e.g., the Old Testament), or believe that since the men of the Old Testament were circumcised, that it must be a good Christian value. Still others acknowledge that male infant circumcision was outlined to Abraham and his descendants, and that gentiles were excluded, but believe the New Testament says it's just a matter of preference, and that gentiles could choose to be circumcised or not, or could choose to have their children circumcised or allowed to be intact. These are erroneous views.
