* The Federal Republic of Germany (''Bundesrepublik Deutschland'') 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, which are guaranteed by Germany's Basic Law (''Grundgesetz''). Thereafter a heated [[Circumcision Debate]] commenced. The Catholic Church (''Katholische Kirche'') in Germany took a position in favor of Jewish and Muslims having a right to circumcise as an exercise of a religious right.!
