Women have dominated the pews in Christinan congregations since St. Peter preached in private homes, probably since Jesus preached on a hillside. The difference today is Nancy at the pulpit. Men have left Christian churches in droves.
Maybe its time to ask the other question: Is Christianity relevant for men today. Maybe men need a religion of Gods and Heros who weren't afraid to kick some female butt.

1. If you have a problem where you think men are leaving the church because they think like that your reaction should be that you need to teach your children better morals.
2. Assuming that doing that will get more men to come to the church rather than chase away the majority who aren't as fucked up as you, (despite what you may think) how exactly is chasing away godly women in favor of dumbasses a good thing for the church?
The difference today is Nancy at the pulpit. Men have left Christian churches in droves. We need to clone this Nancy and put one at every pulpit possible.
I like one of the later comments in that section:
"I'm always interested to hear how something needs to change so that masculinity will feel comfortable with it again. It's fascinating that all that strength, power, force, and manliness can be defeated and driven out by dainty Nancy-ism."

No.
Christianity is not for anyone who can think for themselves.
Last time I read Hindu, Greek, Roman, Sumerian and Chinese mythology, they all kicked male and non-human asses. Not this one either.
If men can't handle the fact that women can preach the Gospel as well as they can, then they shouldn't be in church to begin with.
There are plenty of Gods you can choose from, Bob. You can choose Hera, who effectively kicked the butt of almost every woman who was unfortunate enough to attract Zeus, Tsukiyomi, who killed the goddess Uke-Mochi over dinner, or Huitzilopochtli, who decapitated his own stepsister. Might want to look at Godchecker.com for some inspiration.
well Zeus shagged about a bit as did the other Olympians. The Allfather had his very own band of female ball crushers, etc, etc. Can't remember anything in my extensive reading that covers kicking "female butt". Though I seem to remember that Heracles conquered the Amazon queen (sorry I'm showing off a bit)
But nowhere have tehre been men so insecure as to beat up women.
So is Bob a real man, or a henpecked waster?
Gods and Heroes? I feel an RPG coming on...
"Gimme that Ol' Time Mysoginistic Religion" and/or "He-Men Girls-Haters Club Member"-nthed.
BTW, is this the same asshole who keeps that demented blog The World According to Bob?
Christinan? You worship Christina? But then why would you be so upset about women in your church?
I hope it's Christina Aguilera. There's someone I'd worship. Not as my first choice, but she's on the list.
If it takes abuse and violence to get the men back into the pulpits, then I'd say no, let them stay out.
You must know some weak, cowardly men, if they can only be somewhere if they are the top dog. All the men I know like when women are their equals.
Maybe men need a religion of Gods and Heros who weren't afraid to kick some female butt.
Praise them thar wife beaters, Cletus.
All i see is poor Bob here, wanting to be a MUSLIM! They've got female oppression down to a science.
Oh, and please learn punctuation. Atrocious!
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
