VERSION|0.5.1|NAME|Matt2112|DATE|1358934473|CONTENT|[blockquote]Some Hindu texts also seem to imply that women have fewer rights than men, but ultimately the texts say &quot;Treat women equally.&quot; From this, we learn that women should be treated equally and it is this bit, the bit that is consistent with modern, secular thinking, that I wish to emphasise.

There was a time when India was more advanced in its treatment of women - about the year 900. Since then things haven&#039;t got much better. At the same time, India&#039;s constitution is very advanced in its treatment of women, it&#039;s just that no one pays much attention to it.[/blockquote]

Nothing to add.
