Any chance we could have some helpful analysis of the decision, rather than one-liners? The question of the degree to which parents should be able to permanently alter their children's bodies - for religious reasons or otherwise - is not, it seems to me, one that has a completely obvious answer one way or the other. There may indeed be one correct answer that can be demonstrated, but such demonstration requires argument rather than assertion.
