Can religion be considered Ascribed on some level? Those born into particular religions. -- LogicX 19:29, 13 December 2005 (UTC) reply

while being born into a religion is asrcibed, the issue here is whether some religions have greater status than others. So, if your social rank is based on the religion into which you were born, yeah that's ascribed status, but unless real prestige is conferred.... Are you ruling class because of your religion? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 67.103.38.48 ( talk) 05:01, August 23, 2007 (UTC)

I think that the section about the Caste system in India is lacking some information. It only existed because the bhramins messed with the Vedas and Puranas for their own gain. It is hard, but it is possible to seperate that from the rest of Hinduism. 66.235.43.172 ( talk) 00:15, 11 September 2009 (UTC) reply
