> Caste is another term for race. Both terms are not terms that designate bioligical properties... Caste is based on profession.

    No it still is. It's just not based on YOUR profession that YOU are doing NOW.

  Isn't it the other way where profession is based on the caste you are born into? You make it sound like a child born into a lower caste can choose a profession that lets them join a higher caste. It's not different than american back slaves being born into slavery, if you call slavery a profession or jim crow era legal segregation limiting jobs based on race.
