I didn't know that 23-yr-olds were allowed to be scouts.
If he wasn't 'militant' when younger, what's his beef?
Being a pervert is not an issue, unless you also need to whine or demand 'acceptance.'
Guess the character building demands of scouting didn't stick.

No doubt most of these medal-throwing John Kerry wannabees will include Eagle Scout on their resumes when applying for a job. Eagle Scout... or pervert...
Ummmmmm.
Tough choice.

He is a self-professed homosexual. But if you want to give him the benefit of the doubt for what it is worth and say he is a homosexual in his thoughts only, and has never consummated the act, that is up to you, I won’t argue it.
I would think that arguing FOR something like that is also morally unsound.

Being a pervert is not an issue ...Yes, it is an issue. The "new frontier" in lawsuits against organizations that don't accept homosexuality is going to be suits on behalf of boys who were assaulted or engaged in sodomy with other boys. As soon as a person decides he is "gay," he needs to be kept out of environments in which he can sodomize others, even if they're his age-contemporaries.
And if such a person is a minor, his parents need to try to find the adults with whom he has been involved, if only for health reasons.

Sorry about the misunderstanding. I meant to be brief.
Don't ask-don't tell is not an issue, ONLY if one also accepts that it goes without saying that don't do is an essential part of the deal.
