When did I say that only Judaism practices general mutilation?
This you?
It’s just a statement of how Judaism actually works
Is that or is that not you pretending that circumcision is (somehow) fundamental to Judaism? Or was that somebody else?
And yes, that is how Christianity “actually works”.
Really? Then it should be very easy for you to provide me with proof that there is anything fundamental to the teachings of Christ that calls for colonialist genocide, shouldn’t it?
You’re putting so many words in my mouth I don’t even know where to begin. You’re resorting to really pathetic tactics here to argue against a fantasy in your head. How does saying that genital mitigation is fundamental to Judaism (those are your words, not mine) the same thing as saying that only Jewish people practice genital mutilation? Please explain to me your logic here.

You very clearly have not read the Bible or you wouldn’t make such an obviously ignorant statement. There is sooooo much genocide in that book.
Again, yes. I did say that Judaism practices genital mutilation. I did not, and never said that they are the only ones who do that. Somehow you are fixated on saying that I said that because it makes me sound stupid and you sound smart. I have now explained this to you three times, in plain English. Goodbye.
Of all the types I engage with on here, you edgelord atheists are always the quickest to cut and run when the arguments get hot.
Why is that? Is it simply that your soapbox is fundamentally flimsier than others? Or is there some other reason?
I did not, and never said that they are the only ones who do that.
Ohhhh… so circumcision is not unique to Judaism, is it now?
Since you are such an expert in reducing religions to mere cultural practices that aren’t even unique to them, why don’t you do so for all the others, too?
Rabbis suck the blood from the freshly mutilated penises of little boys.
and
It’s just a statement of how Judaism actually works.
Yes, the former was a factual statement of how this works in Judaism, even today. That is literally how it works. The rabbi cuts off part of an infant’s penis (which is not in any way necessary, except the religion says to), and then puts his mouth on the penis and sucks it until the bleeding stops (because the religion says to). And sometimes as a bonus, the baby even gets herpes from it.
Can you explain how that user didn’t make a factual statement? They didn’t say Judaism is the only religion to practice circumcision, but described how rabbis (who are Jewish by definition) do it.
Lol, yeah. I’m a 54 year old suburban edge lord grandma.
Did you actually read my comment, or do factual descriptions of the literal process of this ceremony get your dander up because you know it’s indefensible?
Just maybe people looking at this from the outside, without a lifetime of indoctrination that normalises things that are otherwise abhorrent, can see that it’s abhorrent?
Do you think it’s okay to marry 9 year olds? I doubt you do, but why not? Is it because you’re an edge lord against that religious practice? Or is it because it’s a despicable practice that belongs in the past?
e: it’s cute that you downvoted me within moments when I haven’t downvoted you once in this whole thread. Who’s the edge lord snowflake, again?
This you?

I mean, that is what he’s famous for, isn’t he?

Was that you or was that not you? Do you actually understand the words you, yourself, type?
Which parts of that text are you referring to? The parts that are common to both Judaism, Christianity and Islam?
Do you want to take a moment to prepare your argument for why all three these religions are fundamentally genocidal?
I suggest you prepare thoroughly - this might get rough for you.

Is every religion merely reducible to a cultural practice to you edgelord atheists?
