A self inflicted wound. How much longer will the Southern Baptist Convention put up with these antics? And the leftists couldn't care less, their goal was to destroy what the BSA was and they have accomplished that completely.

My southern baptist kicked them out after the gay leaders fiasco

[CptnObvious]

More of Barack Obama and the Democrats Legacy in Action.

[DannyTN]

I hope they fight and win it back.

There needs to be a concerted effort to win back the leadership positions.

Don’t walk away form Boy Scout assets and leave them to Liberals. Fight for them.

[rktman]

WTH? They’re boy scouts how can they be lost? Maybe they’re just hiding. No? ;-) I know.............

[D Rider]

No longer the BSA, now just the SA.

[CodeToad]

Homosexuals call it: Scouting for Boys

[ClearCase_guy]

These things seem like a good idea at the time (to somebody).

[DannyTN]

As for as allowing girls, I think female troops are okay. It would be a good alternative to the lesbian invested girl scouts.

The real problem the Boy Scouts have is to reverse the decision to allow gays into leadership positions.

[Salman]

Am I being paranoid if I speculate that this is *not* an unintended consequence?

[FatherofFive]

And taking one-fifth of the Scouts membership with it.

Everything going exactly according to plan. 4/5 left to go.

[Steve_Seattle]

Is it true that 1/5th of all Boy Scouts are Mormon? That seems like a very high figure. Aren’t Mormons about 1% of the population?

[SoFloFreeper]

Good. BSA is dead. I disagree strongly with Mormon theology, but we are of one accord on this issue.

[PapaBear3625]

BSA doesn't care. Follow the money. It's not about membership. It's about corporate sponsorship that would be at risk if BSA was labeled "sexist" over refusing girls.

It's the same reason BSA voted to include gays -- the corporate sponsors demanded it.

How else are they going to pay their executive board members? National Boy Scouts explain $1.6 million salary for top exec (in 2009)

[Steve_Seattle]

We’ve been saying that the left destroys everything it touches, and now they are destroying the Boy Scouts right before our eyes. Probably in 10 years, the Boy Scouts will be 1/5th its current size, and most members will be homosexuals or girls.

The Catholic Church is not associated with the BSA but many parishes have sponsored Boy Scout troops. My parish, at least, has switched to Trail Life which is growing rapidly and provides what has been excised from the old BSA.

[ScottinVA]

Trail Life USA is a great alternative to the “evolving” Scouts.

[mass55th]

"...that it was severing its relationship with the Scouts effective Dec. 31, 2019..."

Why not now? Are they waiting to see if they change it back to Boy Scouts?

[rbg81]

Not surprised. The goal was always to destroy the Boy Scouts.

[EdnaMode]

The left destroys everything it touches.

[Hillarys Gate Cult]

Does the new name seem like a group of British motorcycle enthusiasts to anyone else?
