The Jews are well known for their practice of ritual circumcision, which is sometimes compared to sexual assault or mutilation of boys. The Jews defend themselves by saying that the procedure is harmless. Many academics even argue that circumcision has medical benefits — even going so far as advocating it as a means for ending HIV. Given the strong association between circumcision and Judaism, and considering your answers to the above questions, do you believe that the disputed evidence in favour of medical circumcision is convenient but trustworthy, or are you skeptical?

	0% (0)	It may seem convenient, but its trustworthy
	0% (0)	I'm skeptical
