Men and “manhood” has been utterly destroyed. This is not just in the US but around the world. Traditional male role values such as being “the hunter” or “the breadwinner” no longer means anything. Women have been empowered to take over, and as they’ve done so, the snakes among the men have crept up and continue to fill the ears of the unfaithful with lies.
Boys are being told to sit down, shut up, take this medication, you’re too uppity. Don’t roughhouse. Stay inside. Don’t ride bikes, climb trees, play “cops and robbers” or “cowboys and indians.” They’ve taken away pellet/BB guns, cap guns, Boy Scouts, camping, automotive and mechanical interests such as “building forts” or model airplanes or model rockets. The things I recall fondly of my youth are now forbidden or, worse, illegal.
Men need a renaissance, but it will be at great cost as the proverbial snakes will hiss and writhe and make a fuss as men are empowered to be what they’ve always been: leaders, husbands, fathers, and warriors. If a group of men, under the banner of Christ, are trying to bring about that renaissance, why on Earth are we nitpicking over the particular flavor of Christianity they espouse?
Christianity is on the ropes, folks. Catholics, Calvinists, Baptists, Evangelicals, Anglicans, even Mormons are dwindling. Who cares which sect is leading in the numbers? When your numbers are dwindling, we’d do well to help one another up to remember that we are all brothers in Christ.
I had to look that one up.

I can’t say I disagree! I guess I’m with you and Hank.
If they are invoking the name of Jesus Christ as Lord and savior they are on my side. I do notice you look for people to roast and vilify constantly. Why don’t you go after the ones that are blatantly satanic?
Vodie has solid Christian credentials.
Quote from where? Citation?
Hmmm ... not too many actual Christians here...
... I think that Christ meant it when he said ‘Judge not that ye be not judged, for with that same judgement that ye judge, ye shall also be judged.
Maybe it’s just me, but we LDS let God be the judge of man’s righteousness... certainly not you bed-wetters ;)
I don’t think so. The Emperor reportedly died in battle, for one thing.
Proof? The "Nicene Creed" that Christians recite today was actually written at the Council of Constantinople in AD 381. Constantine was long dead by then.
Is Constantine a Christian?
I don't believe he's being invited to speak at any conferences these days.
