>>11471852Define "benefit". It really depends on what your measure, your metric, and your value system. For example you can tie down a cat, take a skill saw, and saw off all of its limbs, tail, so forth. Tourniquet and cauterize, sterilize, dress, so forth. Maintain this poor thing for a few months in its state of unending and irreversible body and existential horror. Then measure it 6 months later, and find that indeed, it did not develop cancer. Therefore cutting off the limbs is harmless.
Summarized:
-Benefit is relative to a given metric and value system
-You can greatly misconstrue the totality of data by only measuring and reporting certain aspects, then making sweeping and unjustified claims from that data.
-Statistics can be manipulated to show just about anything. I've stumbled on this in many papers where they used eg a Mann-Whitney U-test where it was completely inappropriate so they could write in the summary that there were no significant differences. Same with chi-square and all these others. I actually don't like statistics unless it's applied to massive sample sizes for this reason, your eyes will give you a much better perspective on what's what.
So is circumcision beneficial? Well, if you're born into a wealthy Jewish family, then yes, if your value system includes money and power at the cost of sacrifice made of you and on your behalf, and a degree of subservience, then your circumcision and subjugation by Enlil was beneficial. It gets you what you want in the environment you're in. If you prefer sensual pleasures, freedom, bodily integrity, and experience, it was not. If you're a normie or a goy, then no, there's no conceivable benefit unless you're into asceticism or something and structure your psyche that way. You were essentially given the mark of a slave, chattel, cattle, golem, raw material. This is what genital cutting is, social organization, castes, and a trauma based conditioning starting with preverbal trauma.
