From a moral point of view, circumcision is permissible if, in accordance with therapeutic principles, it prevents a disease that cannot be countered in any other way.
-Pope Pius XII, 1952

Except when performed for strictly therapeutic medical reasons, directly intended amputations, mutilations, and sterilizations performed on innocent persons are against the moral law.
-Catechism of the Catholic Church, 2297

Neonatal male circumcision has no medical indication. It is a traumatic procedure performed without anaesthesia to remove a normal and healthy prepuce.

The AAPS does not support or condone the practice of child circumcision.
-Australasian Academy of Pediatric Sciences, 1996

Circumcision of newborns should not be routinely performed.
-Canadian Pediatric Society, 1989

The British Association of Paediatric Surgeons advises that there is rarely a clinical indication for circumcision.
