Times have changed since the days Baden-Powell formed his Boy Scout movement almost 100 years ago. Those were the days of “manifest destiny” and empire, when Europeans called the blacks of Africa “primitive savages.” Maybe the time has come for the Scout oath to represent not the values of the early 1900s, but to reflect the modern democratic values of our nation that are based on a system of inclusion.

Oh please... WHO the heck is THIS person to tell the SCOUTS what to DO? The Scouts have every right to exclude people who do not believe in God or who are homosexual. You know, if people want to be Gay I don't care...but when they go pushing it on everyone else that is when I get mad. They are not doing anyone any good, especially themselves.

This article isn't worth the paper it is written on. (and notice... it isn't on paper).

Aren't the Boy Scouts in trouble right now? -- Scout Master molested a scout and the scout later claimed it was consensual (yeah, right).

Obviously, the Scout Master is gay and the Scouts are liable.

Wonder if this dingbat would like a hetero male "supervising" whatever club, etc. her daughter is in? Especially, one where they are together a lot and away from home, share a locker room, etc. I am guessing, no.
