This is Guka - Nimetoka Mlimani na Ujumbe Kwa Nyumba Ya Mumbi.............

I have been subject to that ritual out of cultural and peer pressure... however my son will only undergo such if he so wishes as an adult... what comes first your witness to jehovah ama your kikuyu culture?
Jehova and The Gikuyu advocate for circumcision! Read your bible boss... On the seventh day.
And I see you saying you is of house? And you...ama wacha tu.
Censorship is booschiet

what jehovah wanted of the israelis is of no concern to me... as of gikuyu culture.. progress.. symbolism of rite of passage is more important than the physical mutilation of organs
 
A general comment on the broad topic
When you want to conquer a people you make them abandon their way of life because the confusion that ensues makes them very vulnerable to attack and exploitation. Culture is the glue that keeps the family together and the family is what maintains culture.
Use of violence alone doesn't conquer the minds of the natives.
So things like specific gender roles and responsibilities, riika system, praying to the god that lives in the mountains, polygamy, heterosexuality and barter trade system were to be totally destroyed.
Female circumcision is banned by government of Kenya. But that ban should apply to girls who are not yet 18. If an adult woman wants to undergo female circumcision the government should not interfere. Tattooing is skin mutilation. Drilling holes in earlobes and nostrils and belly button are forms of body mutilation allowed by government.

Kikuyu culture, at least in Kikuyu we cut off a piece of you but Jehovah killed his bastard son by nailing him to a cross.
That's not barbaric at all
