Christian women used to be more religious than men - now they are less

Probably a majority of real Christians in the past, for many centuries, were women. Of course, we cannot look into the souls of Men - but in so far as there were objective correlates - such as the number of nuns compared with monks, the sex ratio of regular church attenders and practitioners etc. - women mostly outnumbered men both as a proportion and in terms of average devoutness. 

This was also revealed by the immense and indomitable long-term courage of the 'Babushka'-type old women, who stuck to their publicly declared Christianity even under conditions of harsh oppression; and did their best to transmit this to younger generations. 

It seems as if - up until the middle 20th century - most nice and virtuous women in the UK would not just self-identify as 'a Christian', and would also want to follow Jesus to Heaven; there to be reunited with loved ancestors, and to await their families.


But now, women of the same personality type - who are better than average in terms of niceness and virtue (although much less nice and virtuous than good women of a few generations ago) have very obvious taken the side of Satan in the spiritual war. 

Consequently, I think that there are probably - and perhaps for the first time in many centuries - a higher proportion of men than women among real Christians. 

In other words; the same pro-social, conscientious and obedient personality traits that led women to be good Christians when the churches were strong, coherent and genuinely Christian - and led by men; have caused women to abandon Christianity - including even the pseudo-Christian churches led, whether officially or tacitly, by women. 


Women have become on average more leftist and materialist-atheist than men; because society is now dominated by materialist-atheistic leftism - and women's innate conformity and desire of peer group acceptance leads them to track these changes in society. 

Women's greater usage of (and addiction to) mass- and social-media has exacerbated what was already a strongly established pattern - since the peer group of women is now more powerfully virtual than real - and this peer group is monitored and controlled by the global powers of purposive evil. 

In place of the indomitable Babushkas, modern middle-aged and elderly women display extremely little courage in support of Christian ideals and living; because these are now disapproved by their peer group. They merely drift - expediently - towards whatever they feel will be most accepted by the dominant public discourse.


What were women's strengths are now women's weaknesses - their Achilles heel. 

They may aspire to the side of good - but under unrelenting, increasing, daily pressure from Authority to conform to evil: they drift. 


So, what Christian revival we are seeing (modest as it is) is now not just led-by, but participated-in, mostly by men. 

Which is something else new, and perhaps unprecedented, about these End Times.
