Look, women are wired differently than men - women tend to favor security over freedom, men vice versa. Since being a Christian means being FREE in Christ, men are naturally more concerned with God. Think about all the wars that have been fought in History - many of them were holy wars. Men fought those wars - bled and died for freedom. Women stayed home and cooked - kept the home secure and tended to babies, whilst the men were the ones risking their lives for a higher cause. Our founding FATHERS were men, for Heaven's sake. By the way, back in the old days, fathers taught their sons to be warriors and fight - to be brave, to be noble and defend one's home turf and family name. I could go on - but I think you get the point...
All the great leaders of the church - throughout History - have been men.... You should read "Wild at Heart." Nowadays, boys are taught to hate their very masculinity, while girls are taught to be masculine - it's all screwed up, if you ask me... Boys nowadays lack mentors - positive role models, that is..... To teach them how to be MEN.
Which is why we are living in an America that has become "wussified...."
Women tend to favor security over freedom? DO you have evidence of that? I'd say it depends on the situation, infact I'd say there is evidence showing the contrary.
Being a Christian means being a SLAVE, a slave of God.
No "holy war" was ever fought for freedom, almost no wars were fought for freedom, and no "holy war" was ever actually holy, they were discusting imperialistic slaughters and calling them "holy" is paramount to blasphemy, as Jesus was a pacifist as was the first century church.
Also the founding fathers of christianity were men and women, as a christian I don't give a **** about the founding fathers of some country because I believe in the brotherhood of man, and I follow the christian teachings oppossing nationalism for internationalism and universalism, and I oppose war because that is what the prophetic tradition, Jesus and the New Testiment teach.
Oh, and back in the old days, people who read the bible were burned at the stake, people who translated it were burned at the stake, in the old days slavery was rampent, there was no democracy, in the old days leadership was passed through bloodlines, science was repressed and so on.
Talking about learning how to be a man, I take my role model as Jesus, I suggest you do the same. Nowerdays boys are taught (by morons that think like you) that violence makes a man, that authority makes a man, that domination makes a man, ideas that Jesus detested.
If you being a man is hindered by women have equal rights then you were a bitch to begin with.
It's people like you that totally miss the point of the christian message, that give christianity a bad name.
