It seems to me that if there is no reason to do it... why do it.

Unless you have a covanent with God... i.e. you are a Jew, there is no reason for this proceedure.

With the exception of religion, is see no cultural reason for doing this proceedure. The only reason I see is aesthetic or because I want to.

These are not good enough reasons.

I happen to like the look of pointed ears. Perhaps I should have my baby's ears surgically modified to be pointy. It won't affect her hearing and she will look cooler than all the other kids in her daycare.
