Because they’re Germans son, and btw your attitude has been noticed, oh yes

German judges rule parents can be brought to court for circumcising children

When not performed out of medical necessity, circumcisions constitute a ‘severe and irreversible interference into physical integrity,’ Cologne judges rule

Parents having their sons circumcised can be brought before a judge for causing bodily injury, even if they did so for religious reasons, a regional court in Germany has ruled.

The recent landmark decision will likely draw the condemnation of Jewish and Muslim communities, although official representatives have refrained from commenting so far, saying they first want to study the reasons given for the judgment.

Following the judgment by the District Court of Cologne, neither the rights of parents nor the constitutional freedom of religion can justify interventions such as circumcision, according to Financial Times Deutschland, which first reported the story.

Jewish community officials in Cologne said they have yet to study the court decision but have already contacted the Central Council of Jews in Germany. The Central Council will try immediately to receive a written version of the judgment. Only then will it be possible to comment,” a statement read. “We understand the disquiet and we noticed the numerous phone calls and emails of our community members. We will stay involved and keep you updated.

University of Passau jurist Holm Putzke told the FTD the decision could have far-reaching ramifications.

Updated? Study the decision?

This is pretty obvious both in obvious intent and complete effect.

In Europe it’s always either 1290, 1492, or 1935, even when it’s 2012.
