Should I Circumcise my Child?

Whether or not to circumcise male babies has become a sensitive issue in the U.S. and other Western countries. As late as 1970, over 90% of U.S. boys were circumcised. However, in the past 30 years that percentage has steadily declined to 59.5% due to public outcry. There are strong arguments both for and against circumcision, and the issue remains highly controversial. What do you think?
