I just heard about the most F-Ed up Jewish tradition on NPR. Apparently in some orthodox sects after circumcising a young child the Rabbi fills his mouth with alcohol and sticks the babies penis in his mouth to disinfect the wound.
Seriously, you couldn't just use a cup for that!?!?
And now several herpes related deaths in infants has been confirmed due to this practice.
