Whilst tribal or religious affiliations impact on male circumcision acceptability in Zimbabwe, there is generally lack of consensus amongst Christians on the practice of male circumcision in Africa. WHO (2007) observes that male circumcision is a regular practice amongst the Coptic, Ethiopian, Egyptian and Eritrean Orthodox Churches but it is not practiced by most Christians in Africa. Christians amongst the Luo in Kenya believed that male circumcision should be practiced since Jesus was circumcised, yet others believed that male circumcision was a sin since it changed the way people were created (Bailey 2007).

The source states: "though in many countries (especially the United States and Sub-Saharan Africa, but not so much in Europe) it is widely practiced among Christians" [Gruenbaum, Ellen (2015). The Female Circumcision Controversy: An Anthropological Perspective. University of Pennsylvania Press. p. 61.], the source is not mentioned certain countries. Many sources mention that the majority of Christians in Africa practice circumcision, and there are a large number of African countries where Christians practice circumcision.
