The introduction of the 'dowery' I feel is very immoral, and has caused some destructive behavior in that culture such as killing of brides if they weren't paid in full, aborting female fetuses,and poor families much more willing to sell young girls to 'prostitution rings' that are in the cities'.

However Bride Price is also inherent in both Judaism and Christianity.

Well, it does certainly give rise to the question of just who the Horny Little Devil in the Garden was.
