The actions of men do not affect God. Your prayers do not affect God. Your sacrifices do not affect God. Cutting the foreskins from the penises of infant male humans will not affect God. God will not look more favorably upon a child so mutilated. God does not demand sacrifices of any kind. Circumcision is an idea that strengthens the power of an elite religious leadership. Circumcision gives them a regularly occurring job. A con job. Circumcision is a rite for which they can demand pay. Circumcision serves no useful purpose. Parents only need take the time to teach their male children fundamental bathing and cleaning practices. Circumcision, or regular cleaning of the penis with soap and warm water almost completely eliminates the incidence of cancer of the penis. We teach children to clean their ears, wash their faces and hands, wash under their arms and wash their crotches and buttocks. For male children, just add a part of bathing that requires pulling back of the foreskin of the penis, and applying soap and water. This cleaning is a health measure, not a sexual “playing with himself”. Get a life. Cleanliness is next to Godliness. A clean penis is Godly. Nothing you can do, or say, will affect God. Nothing that can and will happen to you can affect God. God is not going to save you. Do not pretend to yourself that God is listening. God never gives us any promises. God gives us no guarantees. It is doubtful that God listens to, or answers, prayers. God probably has many more important tasks to concern Him. Listening to the childish whimpering of billions of spoiled brats cannot be high on His list. Especially spoiled brats who want someone else to take care of them.

His pithy comments and suggestions for a return to a God-centered personal religion will interest everyone.
