| Resumo: | The relationship between religion and social equality is widely debated around the world. Some people condemn social hierarchies and inequalities as grounded in religious doctrines, practices, and traditions. Others draw on some of those same things to mobilize groups toward activism and self-assertion. Scholars often refer to ‘social equality’ to explain what occurred in the past, using it as a narrative reference point by seeking out historical ideas and practices that resemble seeds of equality that had yet to grow. Perspectives on religion and social equality are diverse, confusing, and contentious. |
