#1 "...Islamic groups are in dispute over such non-therapeutic practices..."

It's a world gone mad. What the hell words are we going to use when confronted with actual non-therapeutic practices?

#2 "Symbolic circumcisiom" is okay, but just not the real thing? Such a progressive culture they've got there in Indonesia. "Henceforth we only pretend to mutilate the young girl".

Doctors and nurses can no longer perform the procedure. This is good. But what happens if muzzie mom and dad decide to take the kid to Larry The Halal Butcher or simply do it themselves? What penalty, if any?

Sigh.
