IMO they wish to destroy the organization completely.
Oh, that process is surely under way. Look at what happened to the Episcopal Church after the church decided to reject scriptural principals. They lost about 2/3rds of their entire youth membership in less than a decade. I think BSA will see similar, if not more severe loses. I’ve been a BSA leader for years. And the quiet conversations I’m hearing from very senior BSA leaders reflects what looks to me to be a massive loss of adult leadership in the coming months. Unlike churches, where families and individuals flock from a large surrounding area, many BSA troops are little hubs within communities.
My city has about half a dozen troops, with three or four very close by. Many of these troops are sustained by the efforts of one, two...maybe three active adult leaders. There are other adults involved. But most BSA troops really do function through the dedication and energy of one or two adults.
The loss of one or two scouts from each troop would be a painful thing. But losing one or two adult leaders could put many troops “out of business.” I think BSA has really “chit the bed” here. We’ll see how it goes. But I strongly suspect that in a few years BSA will be only a shadow of what it was just a few years ago.
