    Okay, let's start here: "By forcing rabbis to communicate the DOH's subjective advice that MBP should not be performed"

    MBP involves putting a baby's penis in an adult's mouth. How many instances of this action are legal in the United States? Only this one. Do it under any other circumstances, and you are a pedophile. MBP is abuse of a baby. Whether the mohel has sexual intentions or not, we don't know, but he is putting a baby's penis inside his mouth and sucking it. Everything about that is wrong. That action is not allowed by law, but call it religion and suddenly it's sanctified and holy!

    Sorry, religions have to abide by the law of the land. Religions cannot justify actions that are contrary to the law of the land. Metzitzah b'Peh may have a place in Israel, but not in the United States, not under the current law. Metzitzah b'Peh should be completely banned in the territory of the United States.
