The BSAs official position and argument before the Court in the BSA vs. Dale case was:
The Boy Scouts asserts that homosexual conduct is inconsistent with the values embodied in the Scout Oath and Law, particularly those represented by the terms morally straight and clean, and that the organization does not want to promote homosexual conduct as a legitimate form of behavior.
Let alone, in most world faiths, “reverent”... nothing changed except the Scout leadership just chickened out.
