My lord surely you can prove Christians are doing it.
I already have. Numerous times. Here's another one. "FGM is practiced among some adherents of the Muslim, Christian, and Jewish faiths. FGM is also practiced among some animists, who believe in the existence of individual spirits and supernatural forces. It is erroneously linked to religion, is not particular to any religious faith, and predates Christianity and Islam. However, some adherents of these religions believe the practice is compulsory for followers of the religion. Because of this flawed link to various religions, and specifically to Islam, religious leaders have an important role to play in dissociating FGM from religion. For example, while FGM is practiced in Egypt, which is predominantly Muslim, it is not practiced in many other countries with predominantly Muslim populations, such as Saudi Arabia and Pakistan. The association of FGM with Islam has been refuted by many Muslim scholars and theologians who say that FGM is not prescribed in the Quran and is contradictory to the teachings of Islam." https://www.hrw.org/news/2010/06/16/qa-female-genital-mutilation That's not proof at all where does it prove christians are going against Christianity and mutilating young girls like they do in Islam ? Please show us something real instead of a looney site that has no proof just hearsay to satisfy haters. You do understand the question don't you or are you really this slow ? I've provided many links. Here's another one. Religion or Culture?Female Genital Mutilation occurs in non-Muslim societies in Africa and is practiced by Christians, Muslims and Animists alike. In Egypt, where perhaps 97 percent of girls suffer genital mutilation, both Christian Copts and Muslims are complicit. Thus, it has long been concluded to be a cultural practice, not connected to religion. http://www.stopfgmmideast.org/background/islam-or-culture/ That's not proof. That's just an assumption they are actually Christians. Life proved muslims support it. You have proven nothing of the such with regards to christianity. You've got to be kidding? How many links have i posted? You need more? And Life proved nothing of the sort. Most Muslims don't support it. That's just a fact. From wikipedia... will you accept anything? "Christianity[edit] The Bible does not mention female circumcision.[83][84] A secret Christian sect – the Russian Skoptsy – quoted passages from the Bible (Matthew, xix,12) to support the female circumcision ritual.[19] Although Christian authorities unanimously agree that female circumcision has no foundation in the religious texts of Christianity, some Christian women are circumcised in Egypt, Kenya, Nigeria and Tanzania wrongly believing it to be a religious requirement.[85] In Africa, missionaries have tried to discourage the practice. However, in some instances, in order to retain converts from other religions, they have either ignored or condoned the continuation of these practices. Mary Nyangweso[86] states, “Christianity, it is important to stress, does not advocate the total eradication of the Nandi female initiation rite. Rather it advocates the need to eradicate the practice of circumcision that involves clitoridectomy and excision because it is physically unhealthy and does not conform to Christian teaching. The initiation rite can continue to be practised and the actual circumcision can be replaced by some other symbolic acts not harmful to women's bodies. This can be derived from the culture itself or Scripture that now forms part of the Nandi way of life.”[86]" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Religious_views_on_female_genital_mutilation
