It sounds like he's defending _a_ caste system, but probably not the one you're thinking of.

No, the other reply has it right - I'm just pointing out that what we see of as the caste system is not what is originally intended. It should not be about inequality

caste system would have no problems. Caste discrimination is the problem. Every religion and Entire world has caste system in one form or the other. otherwise there would be no fights.

Except one thing isn't like another. If you think otherwise, I'd appreciate examples.

That's like saying, apartheid isn't the problem, the ensuing discrimination is?
