Yitzchokm: The “MO”, whatever that means, aren’t interested in “modernizing” anything. Please, before you bash a group, define them. What does “MO” mean to you? And, like I said, I think the main claim is that Metzitzah B’peh might be unnecessary because it was the most efficient way to do Metzitzah, not because there is a Halachic imperative to do it that way. Not because of what anyone else thinks or of subjective barbarism or even about “modernizing” Judaism. Just that there may be a safer, equally effective, equally Halachic way to do it nowadays. That’s the claim. Please tell me how that’s “modernizing” Orthodoxy.
