    I’m not saying it’s okay, only an idiot would willingly do it today when we have access to better methods.

    I’m saying it’s not the most dangerous thing to do, humans have survived just fine alongside the practice.

      Nobody would claim it’s the most dangerous thing to do I hope, that would be a difficult claim to defend.

      My point was that I disagree with your assessment that we survived “just fine”. There are many things far less than fine about human existence particularly going back thousands of years.

      Although I have to wonder what the point is if you agree it’s not a good thing to do, why assert that humanity was just fine alongside the practice? It gives the impression that you’re at the very least dismissing the concerns even if you’re not advocating for it directly.
