Do you think religions treats women inferior?

[nomad]

According to my basic understanding of religions, all religions treat women inferior. If you don't believe go and read your religious books. You will find a lot of instances where religious books say women are inferior. Correct me if I am wrong?

Eve was the culprit that makes them a sinner in the eyes of God. Although God is forgiving and treated us equally.

I wouldn't say all religions do, but some religions do, definitely.

I don't think every religion does that. There are few religion who even don't like their females to study.

 

[Ratine]

I too support that one. Most religions would not allow ladies to take leaderships on the religious issues.

All through the Bible there are so many instances God used women. In the book of judges there was a female judge that went to war and led men. God honouring Mary is also another.

I think so. I know of two religions that really undermines the divinity of women.

Sikhs don't treat women badly or look upon them as inferior and they have a special place in Sikh Religion and from her kings are born so how can they be inferior?

I do not think that religion treat women unfairly. In most religion circle especially the Christian circle both the male and female are giving equal treatment. There are no discrimination..

According to the bible for instance, women are regarded as men assistants for that matter.

It is a fact that cannot be denied. Unfortunately, there are set of boundaries or norms that other religions treat women differently.

I have seen that holy books put the man as the superior and head of everything while the woman is only there for supporting the man

In some contexts of books, women portrayed inferior. But then, they serve an open eye that it should not be like this.

My own religion does not treat anyone above anyone. Both the male and females are giving the same treatment in the worship center..

In my view, it should be like this. Unfortunately, it is not possible to some religions. They tend to give certain roles of these men and women.

I do not have any idea about that if based it in the history written in the Bible, I cannot attest that women are inferior, But there is a religion in my country whose minister abused young girls and he is now wanted in the Philippines and abroad.

My religion does not treat the women in our fold as inferior. This is just because we are equal in the sight of our creator and everyone has equal treatment in the house..

In Christianity, women are admonished to always stay silent and the men should take the lead.
