Should I be circumcised?

Question:

Hi,

I am not yet circumcised. Should I go for it or not?

Answer

Was anyone called while circumcised? Let him not become uncircumcised. Was anyone called while uncircumcised? Let him not be circumcised. Circumcision is nothing and uncircumcision is nothing, but keeping the commandments of God is what matters” (I Corinthians 7:18-19).

Unless you have a problem, circumcision doesn’t gain you anything. All surgeries contain risks and why take risks for something that is not needed?
