→Institution of the moral law in practice: Revise text.
The institution and implementation of the moral law against mutilation and amputation has been a general failure.
* Central and South America from Mexico south to Chile are generally Catholic nations. Non-therapeutic circumcision is not a usual practice in those nations, however it is not clear that the Catholic Church deserves the credit for his condition.
* The Catholic Church in the Philippine Islands are a total failurehas totally failed to institute the teaching of the Catechism regarding amputations and mutilations. Catholicism has been the dominant religion in the Philippines for centuries. About 80 percent of the population are Catholic. In spite of this Catholic influence, the practice of [[Tuli]] (non-therapeutic traditional male circumcision) is deeply entrenched and harms about 93 percent of the male population, of whom many have [[PTSD]].<ref name="ramos2019">{{REFjournal

* Catholics comprise 23 percent of the population in the [[United States]]. The Catholic Church is the largest single religious denomination. The Catholic Church operates hospitals, yet the Catholic Church has taken no action to introduce the moral law into practice, for the protection of boys. Catholic hospitals in the United States still allow [[circumcision]] in direct violation of ''Catechism of the Catholic Church'' §2273. There apparently is no interest in the protection of Catholic infant boys on the part of the Catholic authorities.

* The Federal Republic of Germany has been the site of a controversy over the non-therapeutic circumcision of boys. The [[Cologne circumcision court judgment]] was a ruling in 2012 that non-therapeutic circumcision of a boy violated the [[human rights]] of the boy guaranteed by Germany's Basic Law. Thereafter a heated [[Circumcision Debate]] commenced.The Catholic Church (''Katholische Kirche'') in Germany has taken took a position in favor of Jewish and Muslims having a right to circumcise as an exercise of a religious right.

* The Catholic Church in Germany operates 353 hospitals in Germany. None have a policy against non-therapeutic circumcision.The ''Catechism of the Catholic Church'' §2273 teaching about amputations and mutilations has been totally ignored by the ''Katholische Kirche''. The perceived needs of the Catholic Church have been given priority over the protection of children by the moral law. ==Antisemitism==
