Not only do I agree with your statements, but everything I've contributed to this thread is designed to show that examined more carefully ---reverse-engineered ----the truths hidden in Judaism are not semi-racist, though they might appear that way as they're presented. The truths hidden in Judaism are scientifically correct, and are not racist, silly, or contrary in any way to sound science.
To show that Jewish rituals are correct science, we need merely unpack the verbiage, semantics, and rituals, through which they're mythologically conveyed. The word "Jewish" is a mythological or religious word that circumscribes the scientific fact that prior to sexual reproduction coming on the scene (late in the evolutionary process) all living organisms possessed biological-immortality. They only died accidental deaths come from the environment. Their genes didn't senescence and age. If they evaded accidental death they could live forever. But a second scientific truth lends even more weight to what's already been said in this thread. Before sex entered the scene, all living organisms were female, women, mothers (so far as the binary nature of gender is concerned). All living organisms were Jewish mothers, possessed of the seed of the woman, until the arrival of sex and the seed of the serpent (male seed).
With only a handful of exceptions, single-celled organisms reproducing exclusively by simple fission lack one feature that ultimately brings death to all single-cells that have sex, and all multicellular organisms, including human beings: senescence, the gradual, programmed aging of cells and organisms they make up, independently of events in the environment. Accidental cell death was around from the very first appearance of anything we would call life. Death of the organism through senescence ---programmed death----- makes its appearance in evolution at about the same time that sexual reproduction appears.
Professor William R. Clark, Sex & The Origins of Death, p. 62-63.
If we transmute the myth of the Jewish mother as the only way to birth a Jew (a Jew being an immortal soul) into science, we could say that prior to the evolutionary arrival of the male-organ, all living organisms were biologically immortal Jews who acquired their biological immortality from their mothers none of whom were contaminated with the death-gene that comes on the scene only after the evolution of the first male, and the first male organ.
Death, the literal dis-integration of the husk of the body, was the grim price exacted by meiotic sexuality. Complex development in protoctists and their animal and plant descendants led to the evolution of death as a kind of sexually transmitted disease.
Lynn Margulis, Symbiotic Planet, p. 90.
Obligatory death as a result of senescence – natural aging – may not have come into existence for more than a billion years after life first appeared. This form of programmed death seems to have arisen at about the same time that cells began experimenting with sex in connection with reproduction. It may have been the ultimate loss of innocence.
Professor William R. Clark, Sex & The Origins of Death, Prologue XI.
Through Milah [bleeding the male-organ to death] it would be possible to return to the level of Adam and Eve before the sin. In other words, mankind would again have direct access to the spiritual dimension. . . circumcision restored Abraham and his descendants to the status of Adam before his sin [phallic-sex]. . . If not for Adam's sin, all mankind would have had the status of Israel.
Rabbi Aryeh Kaplan, Inner Space, p. 166; The Handbook of Jewish Thought, p.47; Ibid. p. 39.
Prior to the evolution of the male, the phallus, and binary reproduction through sex, immortality reigned throughout a biosphere peopled only by Jewish mothers and their offspring. Voila. The first ritually significant Jewish "male," which is a scientific oxymoron, comes on the scene when a phallic-male takes a knife and ritually removes the very organ, male-flesh, that brought death into the biology of living organisms in the first place. In effect, and with this ritual, Judaism not only links itself with the sound science presented above, but it tells us something stupendously great: senescence and death is not a permanent feature of human evolution. Sexual-reproduction, with its death-sentence, is a temporary epoch that will come to an end with the arrival of the Jewish Messiah, who, if you could believe it, is the first human male actually born (rather than ritually born) apart from phallic sex. The Jewish Messiah is the first human who's born immoral like all the living organisms that existed before sex transferred its death-sentence. Furthermore, he's immortal for a very simple, scientific, reason: he's conceived without the male-organ, without bi-gendered sex, and without acquiring the death-sentence that passes through anyone and everyone conceived by the male-seed of the biological serpent.
Science says senescence, aging, and guaranteed death, comes from the male. The Jewish male ritually eliminates his possibility of contaminating the seed of the woman, the seed of the Jewish mother, who, her seed, has, from the start of life on earth, always been free of the death-sentence that's transferred in every case by the male-organ. The ritually ensconced Jewish male does this by ritually bleeding the organ that transfers a death-sentence every time it acts as the tree of life. This being the case, the oxymoronic Jewish male, the "real" rather than the "ritual," must come on the scene when his father is really, rather than merely ritually, cut clean out of his conception and birth.
History awaits the revelation of such an unheard of thing (a virgin-born Jewish male) such that we can all be reborn back into our immortality.
