I don’t know the ins and outs of this gay Boy Scout BS, But I read somewhere that one of the reasons they voted for gays was because United Givers Fund refused to give them any money if they didn’t allow gays.

First don’t give 10 cents to United Way or United Givers Fund.

But how in the hell did the United Givers fund check make up for the thousands that now will abandon the Scouts.

60% voted to go Homo, I suspect among that 60% were a lot of closet Homo’s

they have taken away scouting for a group of boys, and I think that's very unfortunate and downright sad."

"Very unfortunate and downright sad"??? What a simpering pansy he is! Pervert Steve Rinehart and his repulsive comrades have inflicted foul depravity on the Boy Scouts of America; that's outrageous and and disgusting.

No, Scouting should not be for "anyone". Scouting should only be for those who can honestly take an oath to do their "duty to God" and to be "morally straight".

It is sad, but I have to laugh when I see an organization inflict such a fatal head wound on itself. The term "boy scout" is often used to describe someone who is above the temptations and moral equivocations that plague most people, e.g. "you're such a 'boy scout'" Now the term 'boy scout' means.....nothing.

LDS will not walk away ~ they're 30% of the program AND they are sufficiently large to operate rather autonomously. Then, too, they have thousands of Mormon kids out there banging on doors as missionaries and they don't want the homosexuals attacking them.

Remember, GAY MARRIAGE was invented by Mitt Romney!

Exactly: Every place homosexuality is required to be “accepted” it is then taught. That is the purpose of homosexual acceptance: Recruitment.

“I think anyone ought to be able to be a scout,” he said. “Gay, straight, it doesn’t matter, and by quitting the program, canceling the program there, they have taken away scouting for a group of boys, and I think that’s very unfortunate and downright sad.”

They still don’t get it, you could always be a scout, it is about openly celebrating something that has no place in scouts, sexuality and basic right of assembly.

Probably the most common criticism I received in business was that I was too much of a Boy Scout. I always took that as a compliment - and permanently refused to do business with anyone who considered that a flaw.

I can see the government saying that any church that withdraws support for BSA over the gay issue will be subject to intense IRS audit and forfeiting of their tax-exempt status as a “hate” group.

Yeah, they should be afraid of 2% of the population.

This is my old pastor. He’s a great guy and a fine priest. I’m not surprised he would be one of the first to stand up to this garbage.

Yeah, they should be afraid of .34% of the population (1/3 of 1%) because there's this crowd who are into attacking religious institutions and personnel.

You visit 1000 homes you will find 3 or 4 of them!

This was always a win-win situation for liberals. Either they get to infiltrate the scouts with gays, or they kill the organization altogether.

That’s why their missionaries always travel in pairs. For the 3 or 4 out of 1000.

Then it’s just a vote away from allowing girls in the boy scouts. 15-17 year old boys in charge of younger kids of the gender they are sexually attracted to isn’t a problem. Male and female sexuality has the same level of force at that age; everyone knows that. Male on male sexuality is the same as male on female and female on female, you can tell by all the heterosexuals and lesbians prowling the parks at 3 AM for free and consensual anonymous sex in the bushes.

Well, a Catholic Priest is first out of the gate. Where are the conservative Protestant clergy on this issue?

Truthfully, it is better to strike early and in force, than to delay and “study the issue”, because there is nothing to study, and the BSA needs a firm and unyielding message that this decision was a terrible mistake and must be undone, or the cost to their organization will be tremendous—far more than what their liberal corporate sponsors contribute.

The action, if made soon and in force, is made *not* to destroy the BSA, but to save it. If they must lose hundreds or thousands of meeting areas for troops, and a vast amount of money and volunteer support, they *will* notice.

Just as importantly, insiders to the organization must let the public know how much the BSA is being punished for its cowardice. The BSA will *not* want to reveal how much revenue it has lost, nor how many troops are now homeless and likely to break up, nor any of the other consequences of its action, so that information must be leaked out.

A "boy scout" (in that metaphorical sense) is someone with a clear, identifiable, comprehensible, "moral" Code of Morals that serves as first principles to guide his actions.

It should be considered a compliment.

The Boy Scouts of America organization has thrown that away.

There was a thread yesterday about a Baptist (?IIRC) church in Kentucky telling BSA to jump in a lake over this faggotry. So we Christians are definitely in this together.
