>>111239393Yes.
The circ. thing can be seen from 3 points ; historical practise, halakah, and culture monopoly.
From historical practise we know what the ancient egyptians did to the snip. The pharoahs did it as per their art relics. From halakah we can see that there are exemptions not only recommended, but required in the talmudim - with the talmudim being taken with a grain of salt in general. From the intercultural aspect we get the biggest break. Harvey Kellog, the ceral guy, pushed for the snip as a way to stop masturbation. Thanks to him, it became standard in the US around the same time the clean living movement was growing big. From this we got prohibition, the Hays code, etc. So from these points, we see there is nothing uniquely jewish about the snip.
Realistically it arose as a snear against the rival nation to Israel and Juda - the Philistines, who were probably originally from the Greek city states, and unsnipped.
>>111239445There was no racial component to the holocaust - it was ethnic. The ethnic group in question are the Askenazik people, who are mostly jewish. The main purpose of the targeting was to give the Germans someone to hate while the nazis marched brainwashed young men to their graves.
Jewish personhood was, and is, a complex issue that has been debated for centuries.
>>111239461I'm not denying the history, I am denying that is was ever unique. I am saying it should be abolished as barbaric.
