Imagine if a bunch of Christian kids wanted to join the Spiral Scouts and then started evangelizing about how Wiccans are all going to hell.

I see no evidence that the Wiccan kid was "evangelizing". He wasn't keeping it a secret, but there's nothing there about him wearing it on his sleeve, either. It only came out because the scout leader pulled it out (in the name of "diversity", no less).

I suppose the Spiral Scouts won't have any problem with that?

On the contrary, there's a big problem with that. Spiral Scouting is not the place for evangelizing, of any sort.

Why did they join the BSA in the first place? Why not just join the SS

Because there wasn't a Spiral Scouts circle in the area. The article states thet the boy's mom had to apply to FORM a circle.

Apparently she could also have applied successfully to the Boy Scouts to have a Wiccan circle sponsor a troop.

" I see no evidence that the Wiccan kid was "evangelizing"."

So, suppose a Wiccan Spiral Club formed and various Christians started joining. You think the Wiccan's would not be concerned about it? You think they would not be concerned that their kids might be influenced away from Wicca?

The goose and the gander are not being treated the same.

Glad she formed her club. She should have done that in the first place.
