Really? The feminine erosion of the church? As David Foster Wallace said in a different context, this is an idea "so stupid it practically drools."

No refutation, just invective. I don't know if I'd point fingers at women in particular, but the concept is sound. Until I got off my butt and actually read the Bible, I bought the lie of the touchy-feely Jesus as described in this article. When you read the Gospels, he's anything but touchy-feely. He's an extremely intelligent, very judgmental, argumentative guy who also happens to always be right (which really pisses off the Powers-That-Be).

That hippy, Bee-Gees look-alike is deathly dull. I like the guy I read about.

Here is a point in reasoning.

If Jesus is our Creator and he created men to be men, it would seem Jesus Himself is not into wussy-touchy-feely men.
