A sad business. We went to the ceremony honoring one of my grandsons who became an Eagle Scout last year, and we were hoping that his younger brother would soon earn the same award.
Now, I don’t know what to think.
But I agree. I certainly would not reply favorably to that letter. And I doubt whether I will donate anything more to them.
I gave up on the Girl Scouts some time ago, and now it looks as if the Boy Scouts are following them down the drain. A great pity. A great tradition has been destroyed.
Well, Christian America should remember that Boy Scouts never, ever was their roots. Boy Scouts at best was a greenhouse. The Lord Himself is their roots and if they have gotten careless about it and given that role to cultural icons, this serves as a great reminder that it was wrong. God does not permit evil things to happen for no good reason.
You certainly can not give to them in good conscience and to not answer the letter with a proper rebuke would be acceptance by omission.
For too long good men have stayed silent.
