Christians hold women down? Like the Virgin Mary? You need treatment for
paranoia. Jewish and Muslim women are not invited into their respective churches
except in special sections, and they have rules regarding clothing, but it is
not really `oppression' . Terrorist muslim groups welcome women. Israeli army
service is mandatory for men and women. Are there any female Ayatollahs or
Imams?
