I don't think so...go back to original believes even in christian religion and you will see the women had always been treated as lessers to men. It's not just the islamic religion.....its just that islamic religion has not been tranformed like western religion as the women's rights movement progressed. All religions historically has been pro men and anti-women.

Try looking into Buddhism and Shinto-ism. I believe women are not treated differently than men are.

Judaism.
Judaism considers women to be on a higher spiritual level than men. Femininity is celebrated in Judaism. The laws of Jewish marriage revolve around women's cycles to completely accommodate her physical and emotional needs. Judaism is not anti-woman by any means.

Before the Romans invaded Europe the pagan villagers/Celts were pro-women.
These days paganism and wicca are very common religions for women. Dianic wicca is mostly all female.
If you think about it, it is mostly the monotheistic religions that degrade women.

I agree hundred percent!! :D:D Alot of christians like to say about islam being mean to women but actually they're just the same. The only good thing is that christianity modernized.

Have u ever heard of S.D.A. (seventh-day adventist)? They used to be "pro men"...but now at least they give a woman a chance...(at positions that were held always by men)....I think it is a sign of the times...women really complained...and they were finally heard...good question Chris!

possible excluding Wiccanism, but more than 50% of the accusers in Salem Mass were snarky women with jealousy issues.

I don't know about anti-women but all women were pretty much treated as chattel and have had to fight for our rights. As for religion they pretty much follow whatever their societies emulate.

I totally agree with you!!!!
I dont think ne religion has actually been pro-women!
But it maybe tru in the ancient pagan religion where the "Mother" used to be the highest entity... (I read abt it somewhere when I was reading up about Arthur and Guinevere...)
