Religion is not inherently sexist. It's just that most popular religions were born in sexist patriarchal cultures and are, therefore, sexist.

I'm sure there exist non-sexist religions that have female followers who aren't shooting themselves in the face. However, it's a sad reality that such religions are so few and so unpopular that I can't even name one off the top of my head - not counting non-serious religions like pastafarianism.

You should stsrt accepting facts rather than adopting them to your beliefs. All religions are cancer. Period.

Depends on how you define a religion. In the broader sense I agree but in the legal sense its complicated. Take the religion of Copyism as an example. An actual recognised religion in Sweden. Whose religion centers around the belief that information should be freely avaliable and whose sacred act is copying anything.
