Circumcision - its effects

[no_escape]

I think most people would agree that it is a cruel thing to do. And yet, they seem to have no problem doing the same thing to an infant because "he won't remember it." Does that mean it's OK to commit cruel acts on people as long as they don't remember it? Or is it that infants are not considered people? Or are we to believe that a baby doesn't feel the same pain and terror that this man describes just because they can't say so in words?
