Religion Teaches Unequality

It was 10th Dec 2008, my second wedding anniversary. I thought it to be a very special day of my life. A memorable day when i tied a knot of a new relation with my husband in the presence of sacred book Guru Granth Sahib, so i had an internal feeling to go to gurudawara sahib and mandir to thank god for the memorable 2 years of my married life. Although i am not too religious but still i believe in the super power that is God. I heard that there is a gurudawara sahib nearby our home but i have never gone there.I searched for it but was not able to find. So i went to Mandir which i have earlier visited once or twice. I mostly go to gurudawara sahib but rarely go to temple, so i didnt knew what rules are followed there.I covered my head and went inside. Idols were placed at a distance and were enclosed withen bars having a door...the door was unlocked i just went inside and touched the platform where the idols were placed and then touched the hand to my head. In the mean time i heard a loud voice of priest, he was stopping me from doing this, i came out and he closed the door but didnt say me anything. Then a middle aged lady came near to me and started telling me that ladies cannot touch the idols because ladies are not pure.........it was a shock to me. She told that those idols are very pure so a woman's touch will make them impure and a man(priest) can touch the idols because they are pure....In what sense are men pure and women impure....Although we talk about equality but still women are not thought to be equal to men and its the religion which teaches this.
