If that’s true, why are women perpetuating religion? Almost every religion has higher attendance and participation rates for women.

Because most religions are also real big on the man as bread winner. And, too, they provide a blueprint for clearly defined roles in regards to family, etc.

These are traditions from which the women benefit more than the men.

Because they need the spiritual help they don’t get at home ... too many of my girlfriends complain that their husbands say they have their “outside job” so you have your “inside job” ... something I don’t need. Every time I think I need/want to get married I visit one of them and my mind is quickly changed ...
