Mohler: The End of Men-A Hard Look at the Future

Albert Mohler  writes a fascinating article "The End of Men? — A Hard Look at the Future." Hanna Rosin makes the case for this claim in the current issue of The Atlantic, and  it is the cover story. While this may seem slightly off the pro life topic, the trend of sex selection is now slanting toward women and the continued feminization of men, perhaps an unintended consequence of the feminist movement,  along with their displacement in leadership roles in society and the family shows the  real issue here , as Mohler states,  is not the end of men, but the disappearance of manhood. Here are some excerpts:

For Christians, the importance of this article is even greater. God intended for men to have a role as workers, reflecting God’s own image in their vocation. The most important issue here it not the gains made by women, but the displacement of men. This has undeniable consequences for these men, and for everyone who loves and depends on them.

What does it mean for large sectors of our society to become virtual matriarchies? How do we prepare the church to deal with such a world while maintaining biblical models of manhood and womanhood?

The elites are awakening to the fact that these vast changes point to a very different future. Christians had better know that matters far more important than economics are at stake. These trends represent nothing less than a collapse of male responsibility, leadership, and expectations. The real issue here is not the end of men, but the disappearance of manhood.
