    That’s what it has become, but I don’t think any of the old religions was founded on the oppression of women, but people in power have conveniently added that sort of thing, when religion became a tool of power

      Religion was invented as a tool of power, whether used for good or bad. Don’t eat “unclean” animals because they make people sick or kill you. That message apparently didn’t work as well as “God says no”.
