There is an organization called Catholics Against Circumcision that argues that circumcision is against the spiritual principles of Catholics, and that therefore Catholics should remain intact. It is not a requirement for either Catholics nor Protestants to be circumcised because of their religion like Jews or Moslems.

For some reason a number of Catholics wanted to come to a country that had freedom of religion and where the Pope had no political power. I have no idea why.
