Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

MODERATORS
I assume it's just a way of calling him Jewish
In this case it is more probable that he is accused of being a secret Muslim.
Do Armenians not circumcise? I thought it was still recommended to get circumcised in Christianity, just not mandatory
No, it's only Americans that do it because some whackos in the 19th-early 20th century thought it would stop people from masturbating.
The actual new testament says that you shouldn't get circumcised
Interesting, I thought Paul was all like "dam people are apprehensive to join this religion because of the genital mutilation part, I'm gonna make it easier for them to join" and made it optional
Most early Christians were converts from Judaism so they were doing circumcision as tradition but the Greeks in particular did not like it and that's where Paul's 'don't worry about it' letter comes in. After Christianity solidified into its own religion there was a move to break from the religion's Jewish roots and carrying on practices from the Old Testament were seen as too Jewish- circumcision was the easiest one to check for when you were got paranoid that there were Crypto-Jews hidden among your population.
