I can't believe it took me this long to find out about this story, And more importantly, To find out that the traditional method of circumcisions involves a Rabbi sucking a child's penis.
City health officials are investigating the death of a baby boy who was one of three infants to contract herpes after a rabbi circumcised them.
Ten days after Rabbi Yitzhok Fischer performed religious circumcisions on twins last October, one died of herpes and the other tested positive for the virus, according to a complaint filed by the health department in Manhattan Supreme Court.
And if that wasn't bad enough....
Under Jewish law, a mohel — someone who performs circumcisions — draws blood from the circumcision wound. Most mohels do it by hand with a suction device, but Fischer uses a practice rare outside strict Orthmohelsroups where he uses his mouth to draw blood after cutting the foreskin.
That is so wrong.
ReplyDeleteJust when you think the religious nutbags can't get any worse, you read something like this!
Holy crap!
ReplyDeleteAh, religion, is there nothing you won't stoop to?

ReplyDeleteyou forgot to mention that you rarely hear of rabbis doing this sort of thing and that given the things other religions have done this is by far not the worse. Although an innocent life was lost and another left scared for life.
