German Court Rules Religious Circumcision on Boys as Assault.

A German Court has ruled that circumcisiong boys on religious rounds be termed as inflicting grievious bodily harm. The regionla court in Cologne, Western Germany, "ruled that the fundamental right of the child to odily intergrity outweighed the fundamental rights of the parents". The court said the parents would have to wait till the child decides to get circumcised. They claim that the body of the child is irreparably and permanently changed by circumcision. This decision caused an outrage in the German Jewish Community. Wonders shall never end.
