It (circumcision) also pretty clearly unconstitutional and otherwise unlawful.
Yahweh and Allah sadly didn't mandate fluoridation when revealing their will for mankind through their prophets. But somehow genital mutilation survives in the US in no small part because of religion.
Circumcision in the U.S. is largely unrelated to religion, the Jewish and Muslim populations are pretty small. It is a remnant of a fad from the 1880s and Victorian-era nonsense. It’s now culturally engrained, with dads frequently citing aesthetics.
