As much as I am disgusted and appalled by these ongoing attacks against the Boy Scouts, I can't help but think that being forced to break their ties with the corrupt, Leftist-controlled, public school system, will ultimately be a good thing for the scouts.

I tend to agree with you. I would extend this idea to the churches. Acceptance of tax breaks make them beholden to the government. Clergy/churches probably would do well to choose their subjects carefully, and need not feel compelled to speak out on all or even most issues, but to give up the right to speak, when neccessary and appropriate, in exchange for a tax break is not good.

And the same MUST be said of ANY who believe in or pledge
to do their best for God,and Country.If the Infidel and
atheist choose to live like animals and reject God I have
no claim to any power over them to force them change. YOU can lead the sinner to the Truth -but you can't make him
accept it. Sometimes God just has to prepare the ground
before we can plant the good seed.
