If you are Jewish, yes it is religious. 60+% of men in the U.S. are not Jewish, hence the Psyop.

"In him also you were circumcised with a circumcision made without hands, by putting off the body of the flesh, by the circumcision of Christ, having been buried with him in baptism, in which you were also raised with him through faith in the powerful working of God, who raised him from the dead." Colossians 2:11 & 12
Speaking against those who were proponents of circumcision for Christians, the Apostle Paul also said, "I wish those who unsettle you would emasculate themselves!" Galatians 5:12
