    I most adult males would rather be dead than endure adult circumcision (in the field, no less, by an army) without the benefit of precision instruments or anaesthesia.

  • Just to let you know, Chris, apparently modern adult circumcision rites for the purpose of converting to Judaism consist of a symbolic needle (ahem) prick, not cutting. Blood, however, must be drawn.
