It is absolutely true that our modern world is trying very hard to make God’s design of masculinity obsolete in every way they can. As Bible believing Christians though we need to realize this is part of a much larger insidious plan. The secular humanists have been using scientific and technological advancements as well as cultural changes to try and make God obsolete.
The attack on what we call “traditional masculinity” which really is just God’s design of masculinity is an attack on God himself.
….
Men are not “emotionally incompetent” for strongly desiring and needing marriage nor for placing their value in being providers and protectors. Men cannot fulfill the purpose for which God designed them without being husbands, fathers, providers and protectors. So, it makes perfect sense that some men would feel suicidal and without a sense of purpose if they cannot do these things.
Our modern world hates this truth. And that is why we are seeing a cultural war over the gender roles God created in the form of transgenderism and homosexuality being forced into cultural acceptance. Secular humanists are literally trying to annihilate the distinction between men and women as God created it.
….
The answer then for us as Christians is to fight back by refusing to conform to this wicked agenda which seeks to make God’s design of masculinity (and femininity for that matter) obsolete.
But how do we fight this cultural war? The simple answer is that we need to reverse the cultural decisions that have brought us to the point we now find ourselves at where we are actually debating if traditional masculinity should be tossed to the dustbin of history.
Work supplies man with a great amount of his purpose. And a service economy does not provide the vast majority of men with an income that can support a family. Only a production economy can supply men with jobs that can support a family. Some say people just need to be educated more for the future. That is false for two reasons.
First it assumes all men have the intelligence and aptitude for high tech jobs and learning. That is untrue. Second as things become more and more automated, we will need even less and less techs because the machines will fix themselves.
….
So, Christians need to raise their voices about the threat of continued automation and AI advances. We need to pass laws that outlaw further AI advances and also outlaw robotic automation in all manufacturing. We also need to outlaw driverless cars as this will put truck drivers and man others out of work.
But we must also work to undo feminism. We must take away the rights America has granted to women since the mid-1800s. This means taking away women’s right to own property and limiting the ability of women to work and earn money. It means placing restrictions on how many women may enter higher education. In other words, it means making women completely dependent on men for their economic provision.
And it absolutely means taking away women’s right to vote.
It also means removing no fault divorce laws and restricting the allowance for divorce to only the gravest of circumstances such as physical abuse, adultery or abandonment.
When we once again secure the institution of marriage and protect the ability of all men to be able to work and earn a living and we restrict women from being independent from men then true masculinity can be restored to its rightful honored position it once held.
But then the question comes – how do we do all the things I just mentioned? They seem impossible in our current culture and political climate. The answer is it starts with Christian fathers and mothers sitting their young people down and showing them what God’s Word says about the different reasons he designed men and women. It means teaching our sons to seek out only Christian women who want to be keepers of their homes and depend on their husbands for their provision as the church depends on Christ for its provision.
It means raising our daughters to be women whose goal in life is not education and career, but instead bringing glory to God by bringing glory to their future husbands. It means raising daughters who want to fully dedicate their lives to serving their husbands, their children and their homes.
Here is another way to look at this. Godly young men need to shut out feminist women. Even if a feminist woman wants to stay at home, she will still bring great sorrow to her future husband with her daily contentions. That means staying away from women who want college and university educations and or careers.
— Larry Solomon, Biblical Gender Roles, Are Men Becoming Obsolete?, April 24, 2019
It’s hard to believe some people really think like this and believe this way. Now I’m not sure I want to watch Season 3 of the Hand Maid’s Tale.
It’s not just a fictional idea with guys like this.
And they think Feminism is scary….

Solomon’s um, interesting ideas are often shared on the blog No Longer Quivering, where Suzanne deftly eviscerates them. His economic ideas in this quote are utterly foolish. His notions about the rights of women are downright evil. May he live in extremely (personally) interesting times.
I am standing here with my mouth agape thinking that this must have been a satire piece from “The Onion” or some such publication as it’s difficult for me to bring myself to believe that an American citizen in 2019 could possibly believe that it is right to roll back human rights and autonomy from half of the population in order to benefit the other half of the population. Honestly, his piece was so horrifying that I was waiting for overt racism to be mentioned as well.
Sissy Christians like this make me want to vomit!!!
Divorce is only allowed for adultery.MT But I say unto you, That whosoever shall put away his wife, saving. for the cause of fornication, causeth her to commit adultery: and. … anyone who marries the divorced woman commits adultery.
Wives are taught to say with even ungodly husbands 1st Pet 3 Wives, in the same way submit yourselves to your own husbands so that, if any of them do not believe the word, they may be won over without words by the behavior of their wives, 2 when they see the purity and reverence of your lives.
I wish this false teacher a speedy trip to hell and an eternity in the lake of fire
Bruce, that guy and his toxic views has been discussed on many blogs. No one knows his true identity (and it’s NOT Larry Solomon), his commenters very rarely have blogs of their own (so it’s possible that he’s creating his own ‘dialogue’) and he’s a well-known misogynist. One would think that Facebook would have a few standards with this sort of thing but it appears not. I have reported him twice – to no avail. (He advocates that women should basically accept whatever her partner – oh, sorry, in his case it would be ‘husband’ dishes out)
The ironic part of his whole message is this – he’s disabled and being supported by his wife! If you sift through his blog you’ll find the ‘goods’ on him. If you can believe ANYTHING he says. He’s been known to just ‘make shit up as he goes along’, depending on feedback from his commenters.
The guy has time on his hands, that’s one thing for sure. Dangerous predator, in my opinion and all-around piece of shit human.
To the point: Fuck him and the horse he rode in on. That is all. 62 yr old broad here. I would say the same to his face.
66 yr old broad here… please spare the horse—it did nothing wrong…and many free thinking Christians do not agree with larry (harriman is his real name) ) soloman and have written 1 star reviews on his fb site. I have been accused of going against god’s plan for woman because I had a career and chose not to have children. Yet that was god’s plan for me. so sad it is christians like him that others judge all Christians by.
