re: #76 Creeping Diversity

harmlessness does not follow from age and popularity.

Actually it does. This is why religions that would practice jumping off a cliff to your death would be unpopular and would not last thousands of years.

Get it? If circumcision was harmful it would not have lasted this long and be this popular.

You keep stating that:

since there is no difference in substance between a religious custom that is practiced for centuries by many people, and a cultural custom that is practiced for centuries by many people.

The problem is that your argument is not necessarily true.

I disagree with it (as I have stated multiple times). You keep standing on it.
