Of the following groups of religious, which two gave women access to spiritual salvation?
  1. Christianity and Buddhism
  2. Christianity and Judaism
  3. Confucianism and Buddhism
  4. Daoism and Christianity
Explanation
Answer - A - Both Christianity and Buddhism gave women access to spiritual salvation.

Key Takeaway: Both Christianity and Buddhism maintained that women and men had equal access to salvation. It is of important note, however, that in these religious, equality on earth was never guaranteed. Christianity has traditionally given men control and power in marriage, politics, and church leadership. Still, many argue that both Buddhism and Christianity have universally regarded women with dignity and respect.
