Incidentally, the Bible advocates circumcision.

The New Testament does not advocate circumcision. Chapter 15 in the Book of Acts states very clearly that circumcision is not a religious requirement for Christian males.

You're right, in Acts 15 says they told the Gentiles that circumcision isn't necessary for salvation. I simply said that the Bible advocates circumcision, not that it requires it.
