[QUOTE="Morganie5, post: 1991387, member: 698908"] Because God commanded circumcision and forbade tatoos and piercings in the Torah. It is out of obedience to God. Furthermore, circumcision is seen as a sign of committment to the faith (and for Christians, it is foreshadowing of circumcizing your heart to obey God's desires and not your own will) whereas body piercings & tattoos are seen as disfiguring God's creation & in the past had cultic pagan religious associations.
