Are the Abrahamic religions inherently misogynistic?
"In the old testament, women were indeed property. They were owned by their fathers, and sold to their husbands. The bible even tells us exactly how much money a man must pay for raping another man's daughter (because she now has no value to her father). Then the rapist must marry his victim, and they have to stay together for ever.
Christianity inherited this misogyny from Judaism, and instituted it for millennia. For example, not too long ago, in the west, all Christian wedding vows included the word "obey" in the woman's vows, but never in the man's.
This is likely because Paul was such a jerk, in my opinion :)
Oddly, of the three, Islam actual treated women comparatively well, at first. But, like all other good things that can be said about "Islam of the past", that is almost entirely gone now. Unfortunately for many Muslim women, their nations are terribly misogynist today, and those nations often use their religion as an excuse to be that way."
In summary: Jews invented oppressing women, Islam is progressive. If that's not David duke type nazism, don't know what is.
Death to atheists!
