Excellent... RC Sproul Jr calls these type of fellers "Men without Chests".  He may have gotten that from CS Lewis.  I don't remember for sure.

May I....?

1. Men who fail to submit to God's truth regardless through what gender it is communicated.

2. Men who ogle women other than their wives and do feel shame for having done so, but continue anyway and invite me to ogle with them.

3. Men who delegate the raising of their children to schools or society or churches or neighbors or spiritual dark forces, or....

4. Men who sacrifice their personal integrity "for the sake of" their family or financial prosperity or prestige.

5. Men who are theologically naive or philosophically under-informed so as to eschew all critical thinking.

6. Men who degrade, minimize or criticize their wives, and particularly in public, in any shape or form whatsoever, jokingly or not. [BAM! SPOT-ON, BROTHA!]

7. Men who fail to praise their children when the <i>imago Dei</i> (God's image) is beautifully portrayed in acts of kindness toward others (P.S. There ARE no "random" acts of kindness, given the image of God within.).

8. Men who compromise their testimony by being obnoxious about their faith "in the name of Jesus".

9. Men who are full of pride "in the name of Jesus" and show an undue amount of self-discipline and spirituality at the expense of helping others who are weak.

10. Men who ARE sold out for Christ but do not love their neighbor as their selves.

Paul United States
