Regardless of it making sense to you or not, autism and circumcision are statistically linked.

As are murders and ice cream sales. Maybe we should consider the problems of ice cream.

being Jewish lowers your risk for Autism....

Yes. They are. But it's a meaningless fact. And most people would probably agree that rather than A (circumcision) causing B (autism) that something like C (living in an industrialized country with magnificent access to healthcare and public schools where children are brought to interact in large groups at a young age combined with increase awareness so that kids aren't just socially awkward or mentally retarded but now have a new name- ASD/autistic) is causing both A (high rate of circumcision) and B (high instance of labeling kids as "autistic/ASD").
