In my opinion you are right, Kyu. Many religious laws were invented by 'holy' men as a convieniant way of maintaining the class system/slavery et al which allowed the religious establishment and its main benifactors to stay in power by assosiating their rule with that of God/gods and hence reducing the legitimacy of any oppossition to that rule. Any time someone disagreed with what the establishment was doing (to woman or otherwise), the lord of the land could dust of his copy of the holy book and point to the specific passage (usally out of context) and hence ensure that they appear to be on the right side.
