the men went hunting and women went to Walmart! ha...
Oh no way! You'd have to reverse that at my house! I love to hunt and I hate Walmart! My husband hunts too but he can take it or leave it. If I had to choose between hunting and Walmart, I'd go hunting and send my husband to Walmart!

I saw this on another forum and asked/received the author (Pastor Steve Buxton of Hilltop Tabernacle Chula Vista, CA) for permission to post it here.
I guess the war was a pretty good excuse to place women in the work force. But glacing backward it seems to me that we not only took women out of the home but ultimately we lost the men in the process. The children of the WWII generation produced an attitude that explored the difference of the sexes while losing the respect of them. The children of the "make love not war generation" as they have moved into power, have done their best to absolutely destroy any deliniation of the sexes. With that has come this nuetered philosophy of Political Correctness of speech.
The reason for my post is that it seems to me that with the departure of real "Maleness" in our society it has become a seedbed for this PC mentality. It bothers me that men ( and I have seen it on this forum ) have to apologize and try to defend themselves if they speak in a way that some would consider not PC. Were the O.T. Prophets P.C.? Were the Disciples? Was Christ? I think not. Trumpets can be loud, disrupting even alarming but they do give a certain sound. Is not the admonition of Isaiah 58:1 to "lift up thy voice like a trumpet..." I am in the Church today because Men of God, Real Men of God, lifted their voices plainly....and I heard them and understood them..and am thankful for them today. Lift up your voice like a trumpet!!
I personally don't think the issue is political. The real issue is the rate of divorce and the lack of having a father figure in the home. Sadly divorce rates are just as high among professed conservatives as liberals. Politicizing this fails to address the deeper issue of divorce and targets political enemies. It's just another example of how we've been socially conditioned to be political Christians instead of real and spiritual Christians who address real and personal issues on a spiritual level. We have an entire generation without male role models and blaming politicians is the easy way out.
