Well, its just like the appendix. Monkeys have an appendix and its job is to help them brake down and dijest leaves. We dont need it, its just still with us after we evolved. The skin might be the same thing, we have it from our distance ancestory and its not needed. Thats assuming you believe evolution, if you believe creation then well, we have been given it for a purpose and we shouldnt get rid of what God has given us. |
Jews were the first to be circumsized.
From Genesis 17.
"9 Then God said to Abraham, "As for you, you must keep my covenant, you and your descendants after you for the generations to come. 10 This is my covenant with you and your descendants after you, the covenant you are to keep: Every male among you shall be circumcised. 11 You are to undergo circumcision, and it will be the sign of the covenant between me and you."
This is the NIV version.
