Is a boy born to a Jewish mother Jewish if he is not circumcised?
Dseabroo
Yes. His acquisition of Jewishness occurs at the moment of birth, when he would not yet have been circumcised anyway.
Continuing to be uncircumcised is a halakhic (Jewish legal) problem within Judaism, but a person does not forgo their Jewish nature or identity by failing to live up to the halakhah. There are, however, one or two commandments which an uncircumcised Jew may not take part in (such as offering the Passover sacrifice) on account of his failure to get circumcised (assuming it was by choice).

Do ALL Jewish boys get Bar Mitzvahed?
First, let's clarify what a bar mitzvah actually is. On a Jewish boy's 13th birthday he becomes a bar mitzvah, there is no ceremony necessary for this to happen, it's automatic. Now, when a boy becomes a bar mitzvah, one of the traditions is for him to publicly read from the Torah as this is a responsibility held by Jewish adults. However, any Jewish male who is not circumcised is not allowed to be the person who reads the Torah portion publicly. Therefore, if a Jewish boy is not circumcised, he cannot participate in the ceremony associated with becoming a bar mitzvah.
Is it true that most boy scouts are circumcised like you?
Circumcision is usually a choice made by the parents of the boy though some adult men get circumcised later in life. Most have their son circumcised for cleanliness reasons or because of their religion. Not everyone is circumcised and it is definitely not something group based like boy scouts. I'm sure there are boys in your group who still have their foreskin.
