Another poke in their eye.
The left would call them the SS. Need something different.
But this is the end of Scouting as we know it. I used to be the Chairman of the Catholic Scouting Committee in Florida. I don't know how I could reconcile this decision with Christian principles.
I will start calling the BSA the Gay Boys from now on. A phoenix will rise from the ashes.
By the Public Law that gave the BSA a Congressional Charter, they have the exclusive use of the word “scout” as regards a formal youth organization. Thus, the various church-developed youth groups have avoided that with their names: Royal Rangers, Royal Ambassadors, etc. The American Heritage Girls have learned some things that would be good to know for any future organization for boys. Also, keeping a church connection will enable the protection of the First Amendment when holding to moral and faith principles as core elements of the program.
