F[/IMG]</var></li>[*] Associated Press</li>[*]0 Comments</li>Berlin — A group of Orthodox rabbis warned Wednesday that the ancient Jewish practice of infant male circumcision could face further restrictions in Europe after some hospitals in Austria and Switzerland suspended the procedure by citing a German court ruling that it could amount to criminal bodily harm.Last month's verdict by a regional court in Cologne didn't ban circumcision, which involves cutting off a boy's foreskin. But it prompted angry protests from Jewish and Muslims groups, especially after the German Medical Association advised doctors not to perform unnecessary circumcisions until the legal situation is clarified — something Germany's government has pledged to do soon.On Tuesday, the governor of Vorarlberg province in Austria told state-run hospitals to stop circumcisions except for health reasons until the legal situation is clarified. He said he sees the German decision, which arose from the case of a child whose circumcision led to medical complications, as a "precedence-setting judgment."While Muslims, too, commonly circumcise their sons at a young age, in Judaism the procedure must take place eight days after birth. According to religious law, an uncircumcised male isn't considered fully part of the Jewish community, Goldschmidt said.The German government is expected to propose a bill this fall which would ensure that circumcision remains legal in the country. The Children's Hospital in Zurich said it hopes to reach a decision next month about circumcisions. Hail Father Satan!!
