This is what I call eisegesis...
"WE consider this..." Mark are you the judge, jury, and executioner?
I believe that Mark is speaking out against the recent statistics that continue to come out regarding young men, adolescents, and boys. However, to view men in the way Mark does is very patriarchal and authoritative. The question that Christians must ask, is this biblical? What picture do we observe in Genesis, in Song of Songs, and how does that relate to the marital picture that Jesus and Paul depict?
A believe that it is a little more egalitarian while holding the heart of a servant. When polled I believe that this is much more difficult than being the macho bread winner of the family that Mark starts to paint.
