Hinduism and the Caste System

The Caste System is a ranking of your social status.
If you practice your religious beliefs then you will be reborn into a higher Caste. Brahmin, priests, Kshatryia, and warriors are toward the top of the ranking. Towards the bottom would be the commoners, servants, and the untouchables. Also you are reborn in a higher Caste if you are non violent and do not cause any crime.
