if you want to comment be my guest. have at it. tell us what you think mens ministry ought to be or tell us about a successful one you know of.
but please dont walk in and bash men to make you feel better or find some derogatory compairison where none was offered.

I'm honestly not looking for anything. I just saw an opportunity for a little fun with some friendly jabs.
But now you really have me curious.
Do you accuse men that comment on ladies threads of having "men sized chips" on their shoulders when they make observations comparing the sexes?
Do you defend women that are spoken of in a derogatory manner in regards to hair, pants, make up, jewelry, submission, etc.?
Why do you throw out the "feminism" card over gender comparisons on this thread when they take place all the time all over the board?

LOL! Go ahead and enjoy your popcorn.
Seems to me like some people are "ultra sensitive" today.
I'll be leaving soon and won't return until tomorrow anyway...

Sister, as much as I like reading your posts, and think you do a good job of defending women preachers, I have to say I find myself agreeing with Ferd on this one. You came in here with a women vs men approach.

Yeah, but this thread wasn't started to be a women vs men thread. It was just to talk about men's groups and what they do. See the difference?

You don't think your posts have been a bit caustic? It's just a thread about men's ministry, for pete's sake. LOL!!!!

If speaking the truth about real life personal experiences and observations is "caustic" then I guess my posts were caustic.
Perhaps I should have just said that from my experience and observations men's ministries are a joke, IMO, and left off the ladies ministries comparison. Would that have been better?
I do have a husband that agrees with me. Maybe I should try to get him to post here.
Good grief.

Maybe you could use emoticons to indicate joking. (Or not) Just a thought. 
I think Ferd was also pointing out that most Men's Ministries are a joke, and was presenting ways they could be better. Perhaps your point would have been better served just to agree with him?
LOL!!!

Tell me Rico, how many threads stay precisely on topic all the time and never deviate? 
Besides, I was only sharing personal observations and experiences just like anyone else.
