Dear Christian, ... p.s. your God is obsessed with foreskins, you lose either way.

FWIW... The obsession with foreskins is more of a USAian thing from some corn flake capitalist. I think christians outside USA are generally uncut. It's a national thing, not a religious thing.

Christianity legalized the foreskin almost immediately. It's still legal today. TBH I don't think christianity would have grown so popular otherwise.

... Then some of the believers who belonged to the party of the Pharisees stood up and said, “The Gentiles must be circumcised and required to keep the law of Moses.” The apostles and elders met to consider this question. After much discussion, Peter got up and addressed them: “Brothers, you know that some time ago God made a choice among you that the Gentiles might hear from my lips the message of the gospel and believe. God, who knows the heart, showed that he accepted them by giving the Holy Spirit to them, just as he did to us. He did not discriminate between us and them, for he purified their hearts by faith. Now then, why do you try to test God by putting on the necks of Gentiles a yoke that neither we nor our ancestors have been able to bear? No! We believe it is through the grace of our Lord Jesus that we are saved, just as they are... It is my judgment, therefore, that we should not make it difficult for the Gentiles who are turning to God..." - Acts 15

No, it's really from the Old Testament, with over a dozen mentions (I think the total is 14). Search "foreskin" KJV in your favorite Bible search engine.

Jesus also said "For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled." (Matthew 5:14). Foreskins are a repeated part of those jots and tittle laws.

All of that foreskin business could have instead been admonitions against slavery, child marriage, or further dietary rules for that matter.

It's there, for all eternity, genital mutilation and other stupidity, preserved for our enjoyment and/or embarrassment.
