Religious Oppression of Women

  • Study religion, not even that closely, and you might see how the Abrahamic religions all approach women from a male's egotistical, superior agenda of control and submissiveness.  It would seem Hinduism also has a problem moving into the 21st century with any mature, civilized sense of humanity. The problem with scripture taken from multiple sources is continuity.  The problem with scripture taken from verbal history is that "history" tends to reflect the agenda of the storyteller.  The problem with scripture written by one person seems to rely on which faction of the family in control of the writings is interpreting the intent of the deceased author.  But, then, this all has to do with the historical treatment of women and why that maltreatment has followed mankind into the 21st century.
