If you quit, you let them win.
This is what Obama and the secularists want.
They want all of the foundation forming, values building organizations destroyed.
It’s the same tactic being used to drive chaplains from the military.
Exactly.
If you quit, you let them win.

If you don’t quit you sponsor homosexuals
Catch 22.
The idiots who voted to allow Homosexual kids in the Scouts were afraid of losing the sponsorship of companies who wish to sponsor Homosexual sex. Such as United Fund. They voted for the money and doomed the Scouts.
Now they have neither. Instead of brains those who voted for this mess have fecal material in their heads.
The church isn't quitting the Boy Scouts; the Boy Scouts are quitting the church.
Millions of American parents brought their sons to BSA because we believed in the values BSA once represented. Through the use of deceitful tactics and a “survey” that was written to function as what they would call a “push poll” in politics, BSA has cast aside those core values. We didn't quit the scouts. The scouts quit us.
BTW, this is just the “tip of the iceberg.” The scouts are no more than “dead man walking” right now. It's only a matter of time. They drank the hemlock of political correctness, and become a different organization than they were previously. There's nothing anyone can do to save them now.
After the Episcopal Church embraced political correctness the number of children registered for their Sunday School programs across the country dropped from nearly 900,000 to less than 300,000. And the Episcopal Church doesn't send many small groups camping in remote locations for dozens of days per year. BSA, themselves, have estimate that they'll lose at least 400,000 members due to this decision. When reality finally hits I suspect they'll see a loss of well over 1Million members, within five years.
They have already won. Staying doesn't mean standing up for our values, it means conceding to theirs. Straight boys and religious scoutmasters and sponsors are going to be lightning rods for the perverts. The first time a "gay" kid reports that his imagined sexual orientation is not validated by his troop or scoutmaster there will be civil rights lawyers and federal investigators coming out of the woodwork. No one should subject their children-or their church-to that.
The BSA has mortally wounded itself. Let it wither away and die the death it has chosen.
The "exodus" out of Sodom and Gemorah is a good thing, in which all God loving/fearing people should do.
Besides, I've read some stories about those leaving the gay scouts will form a new "boy scouts". The stories I've read, these people were quite upset they felt FORCED to leave what was once a great institution for little boys and their dads and great male role models.
They seemed more saddened than angry about the gay scouts decision.
Of course you don't. Instead, you create something new that is responsive to Biblical principles, as the Scouts used to be.
I speak here as a former Scout, local council executive officer and Eagle dad. Thankfully, my son earned his award before the national organization accepted perversion.
Right now, I wouldn't recommend Scouting to a boy. We didn't allow our daughter to join the Girl Scouts for the same reason. Let's create youth organizations that truly honor God instead of simply offering lip service.
I disagree. The BSA was a disgrace...corporate whores as distant from scouting as Susan Komen was from funding cancer research. The basis of BSA was in the UK and it was BIBLICALLY-based and focused on the kids, not Fortune 500 sponsorships.
The BSA must be eviscerated and a NEW scout organization rapidly take its place based on biblical values and not beholden to the almighty dollar - and thus homosexual pressure groups.
>>> If you quit, you let them win.
First of all, they have already won where scouting is concerned. Scouting CANNOT survive this.
Second, by NOT quitting, current members/supporters/leaders are CONDONING the behavior... so NOT quitting is a BIGGER win for the homos.
Third, the only possible way that Scouting can survive this is if enough people abandon the organization quickly enough for the council to reverse course immediately.
God is in the process here of separating the wheat from the chaff. This was traditionally accomplished by thrashing the harvested wheat and then pitching it up into the wind so that the chaff would be blown away while seeds would remain. Make no mistake... God is testing His people.
Honor and Principle does not reside in an organization.
It resides in the individual.
Can the BSA be split like some of the major Christian denominations have done through the years?
Have a BSA Traditional and a BSA Prancers.
This is what Obama and the secularists want.
They want all of the foundation forming, values building organizations destroyed.
I can't agree with you here. I, honestly, do not believe that they want to destroy all of the foundation forming, values building organizations. I believe that they want to pervert all of those organizations to teach their set of values as foundational...to twist and corrupt them. I believe they want those organizations to teach good as evil and evil as good.
The best they can do is quit and form a separate org that does follow it`s standards.
No, if you quit, you force the organization to conform to the needs of its membership.
Importantly, the BSA tried a similar stupidity before. Back in the 1970s, the organization tried to be trendy, and invited a large number of inner city “yoots” to join its ranks. They even created a universally despised version of the Boy Scout manual, which discarded the old knowledge and replaced it with “inner city scouting”, as if it was written by a “community organizer”.
This ended after the yoots were sent to Boy Scout camps, and went on vandalism and arson riots, costing the BSA millions of dollars in repairs.
The new manual was discarded, the inner city troops were disbanded, and the BSA politburo sulked off to lick its wounds. Only with president Reagan did they regain their spirit.
So what will happen this time? Not only will troops disband, and dues paying Scouts leave the organization, but a huge number of their donations are going to dry up.
For all the promises their corporate overlords gave them about funding if they would just embrace homosexuality, there is no way they will make up for this lost revenue and other supports.
I figure the turnaround time will be about 10 years, then they will quietly discard the policy, and send out the message that religiously faithful scouts are again welcome.
The camel has his nose under the tent. Next year or the year after they will allow allow gay scout masters since it would be fair for a former gay Eagle scout not to be able to continue in the organization. It is not a question of will it happen, just a question of when.
Somehow, I suspect that Homosexuals were not attracted to the Boy Scouts because of the Scout law of being Morally Straight, or to be Reverent. And if they were not attracted to the Scouts because of what the scouts are in spirit, then the only attraction is what the Boy Scouts are in the flesh.
Little boys.
Kinda obvious.
I understand your statement, and I do agree with you that the evil people in this world want to burn society to the ground. And they will succeed, for to fight them on their own ground makes you just as evil. This is the very reason Hell was created by God. You don't have to fight them, and you don't have to join them. That battle is God's. You just fight your own evil inclination, that is the battle you can win.
The Tribulation is man made. The Utopia of Sin that they wish to create, is the very hell on earth that they will have to live in. Right before the "Great Tribulation" which is not man made, is God's wrath, and Hell, the Utopia they deserve.
You ever wonder how God was going to solve the "Evil, can't live with them, and can't kill them conundrum"?
He removes the evil for destruction from the Good for relationship.

The Obammunists have already won, because they’ve already destroyed our institutions by perverting them and hollowing them out. To continue to participate in such Potemkin institutions is to give tacit approval and support, unless there is a REAL chance of re-seizing the levers of power of a destroyed institution and re-turning it around to what it once was. If a destroyed institution cannot be saved, then it is best to allow it to completely collapse and found an alternative organization from scratch.
“They” have won already. What’s the difference?
“If you quit, you let them win.”
As far as the BSA is concerned, they HAVE won. Past tense. The BSA now supports homosexuality as a valid, morally straight choice.
That is unacceptable to baptists.

I’m sure the mosque down the street will be happy to sponsor the BSA
