Not my religion, I follow a philosophy which one is born into, so no need to defend, just an observation.

Making a general assumption vis a vis a particular religion is not a good thing, what one does is not necessarily followed or even condoned by others of the same faith, you have to really know the facts and backgrounds before putting a write up like this. The practice of Devadasis although linked to temple is limited only to the region of South India and nowhere else. Its more to do with their society there than to do with anything about the Gods, their is also a practice in South India to marry their own niece to maintain matriarchal family, also there is another practice of mauling their own body to please the so-called Gods, all these are taboos in North and will get you ostracized for sure, so it's social and nothing at all to do with the Gods.
