Another institution being destroyed.

A vote allowing mentally ill child predators access to children will be suicide for the Boy Scouts.

Tragic for the future of children and young men everywhere.

My granddaughters belong to American Heritage Girls (www.ahgonline.org), a “Judeo-Christian focused” group. Formed in 1995 they seem to have grown to good numbers with a significant presence in Northern VA. Might there be a similar group formed of those who will become disillusioned with a reformed BSA?

Certainly adult supervision by Homosexuals in the boy scouts can be argued against easily.

But the argument not to let openly homosexual boys is not so easily won.

But let us remember that boys as old as 17 can be scouts.
I believe that is the age I am not certain.

Do you really believe a 17 year old openly homosexual scout should be camping with your 12 year old?

I sure don’t.

If the scouts allow open homosexual to remain in scouting they may as well close their doors.

And the sad thing is, once they pull that trigger, and Scouting implodes. . . they’re going to blame it on the “haters”. . .

RE :”a historic vote on the agenda that could change the iconic organization’s century-old policy and allow avowed homosexuals, some 1,400 Boy Scout leaders from across the nation who form the National Council have gathered in Grapevine, Texas”

A way the boy scouts could resolve this is to ‘allow’ members (boy scouts) who are gay to join, as long as they renounce homosexual behavior/lifestyle as immoral.

The problem becomes when you make certain specific behavior a civil right based on minority status that is solely based on feelings (the victims)

No different than allowing normal adolescent boys & girls to sleep in the same tent.

How appropriate would that be?

[plangent]

I suppose the phrase “morally straight” will have to be removed from the Boy Scout pledge.

Another institution being destroyed

that's the plan.

A final vote is scheduled for Thursday on a proposal that would allow openly homosexual scouts but retain the ban on adult homosexual scout leaders.

How can you justify homosexuals in one without allowing it in the other? The Scouts fought a long legal battle to safeguard their right to admit who they want to. They shouldn't toss all that away.

It is the sexual deviants who are the bullies.

With the military now openly embracing homosexuality on Obama’s watch, the Boy Scouts are the last and final bastion of moral strength in America - thus, they need to be destroyed at all costs.

On my honor I will do my best to do my duty to God and my country, and to obey the Scout Law;
To help other people at all times; to keep myself physically strong, mentally awake  and morally straight 

If the homo dhimmis manage to browbeat enough spineless cowards to pass this, I will never again recommend Scouting to any boy or family !

Shouldn’t there be a live thread for this today?
