A former Boy Scout leader has been charged with sodomizing a boy in his troop who was under the age of 13.

The abuse took place in 2005, according to court documents, but the victim, now an adult, waited several years before coming forward, reported WHSV-TV in Harrisonburg, Va.

The BSA’s Stonewall Jackson Area Council released a prepared statement after the arrest.

“The abuse of anyone, especially a child, is intolerable and our thoughts and prayers go out to anyone who may be a victim of this type of behavior,” the statement said. ‘The behavior included in these allegations runs counter to everything for which the Boy Scouts of America stands.”

The BSA’s national executive board is expected to vote tomorrow on a proposal that would allow local Scouting organizations to form their own membership rules regarding homosexuals. WND reported yesterday that many Scout leaders, from the national organization to the troop level, have said they will resign if the proposal passes.

Steve Elwart, a 30-year veteran of Scouting, who once served as an area overseer of the youth protection program in the Scouts’ Southern Region, told WND the organization, in response to abuse, has developed a model system to protect Scouts.

Leaders, for example, are no longer allowed to meet alone with a Scout.

For that reason, unlike many, his primary concern is not that pedophiles will infiltrate the organization if the policy is changed.

Calling that issue a “red herring,” his concern is more fundamental.

“Homosexuality is not a value I want to see imparted on my children,” he said. “And a lot of parents feel the same way, that homosexuality is not OK.”

Not “unlicensed” - it’s “undocumented”. ;-P

If only Boy Scout leaders were allowed to marry, this sort of thing wouldn’t happen. Oh - wait - they are allowed to marry ... never mind, so much for that excuse.

16 ... Will there be an official list available detailing which local organizations allow gay members and leaders? ...

We already know for sure the following church denominations will accept "chickenhawks".

1. Unitarian/ Universalist
3. United Church of Christ
4. Evangelical Lutheran Church in America
5. Presybterian Church USA
6. Disciples of Christ/ The Christian Church
7. Moravian
8. Alliance of Baptists
9. Cooperative Baptist Fellowship
10. United Methodist - special case - if the local parish espouses "social justice" and has a female pastor

One tiny step will be to reject the idea that a Sodomite is genetically determined and qualitatively different from a pedophile. Sodomy is a decadence disorder which requires ever more intense stimulation to achieve the same feeling of aliveness. This theory explains why Sodomites are ever pursuing younger and greater numbers of victims. A so called pedophile is merely a homosexual Sodomite pursuing greater stimulation.
