My wife — now my ex — was ethnically, if not spiritually, Jewish. Being Wiccan at the time, neither of us was especially commuted to the practice of circumcision, but since we had greatly upset my mother-in-law by moving to the West Coast, thus burdening her with a 3,000-mile journey to see her new grandson, our newborn son’s foreskin seemed a reasonable sacrifice to get back into her good graces. To this day my son suffers from phantom foreskin syndrome and has never forgiven me.
