Why does the Taliban hate women?

You can't claim that Taliban hate women. It is the practice and tradition in Afghanistan for woman not to work and not to go for high level education. These local traditions were the same in many countries, even in Europe, some centuries ago. The Afghan people should be allowed enough time to go through the natural cycle of development rather than causing country long suffering of extensive wars.


What were some beliefs in ancient Mesopotamia?

The religious beliefs of the Mesopotamians and the Hebrews were remarkably similar, at least before the Deuteronomistic reforms of King Josiah of Judah, in the seventh century BCE. The dominant gods seem to have been the sun god, moon god and a storm god, although the names were different in different regions and over time. Baal has been identified as a storm god, and some scholars say that Yahweh was also originally a storm god. The golden calf associated with the Exodus and the reign of Jereboam was a symbol of the moon god. The dominant goddess was the mother goddess and fertility goddess, usually associated with Venus, and therefore known as the Queen of Heaven. In Mesopotamia she was often called Astarte, while in Israel and Judah she was Asherah. The biblical creation and flood stories also have parallels in ancient Mesopotamia.
