	Description:		Is religion at the root of the misogyny that women experience in the world today? If gender discrimination is rejected in every other arena, why is it accepted in religion? God is personified as male. His representatives at the highest levels of religion are men. Many denominations and faiths do not allow the full or any ordination of women into the clergy. But is the question more complex than it appears? Misogyny doesn't exist in limbo, it's argued that it's embedded in the beliefs and values systems of many religions. Presenter Audrey Carville in conversation with the Reverend Christina Rees, Professor Lawrence Kirkpatrick and rights advocate and commentator Koulla Yiasouma.
