The Mosaic Law food laws show evidence of divine knowledge? Law advanced other ways?

NEXT LET US TAKE A LOOK AT CIRCUMCISION:

---

The supposed miraculous benefits of circumcision have never been demonstrated to the satisfaction of the medical community. When the New England Journal of Medicine printed an article in 2002 describing a study which supposedly proved the benefits of the procedure, they not only received a ton of mail from dissenting physicians, but also a letter from the very authors of the study making it clear the NEJM had overstated the case.In the December 1978 issue of the American Journal of Diseases of Children, Dr. Sydney S. Gellis stated that "It is an uncontestable fact at this point that there are more deaths from complications of circumcision than from cancer of the penis."

Some would say that the benefits of circumcision shows (sic) design flaws. Of course, to show that there were design flaws you must show that cancer and vendereal (sic) disease, and infections were not a result of a fall in the Garden of Eden). I do not think this objection can be sustained.

I know there is not 100% consensus regarding circumcision. I do believe, however, that circumcision while not medically necessary does have its advantages and that the pros outweigh the cons.

I thought we were talking about Divine Wisdom here. Correct me if I'm wrong, but you're asserting that the ancient Israelites were privy to amazingly advanced medical knowledge, given from on high by their all-knowing Lord. If God tells us to mutilate newborn males, there should be an absolutely indisputable reason for doing so independent of the fact that the Bible says God tells us to do so! So where is it?regards,
