so when do we get to hear about the result of this vote?

The polarizing debate over whether Boy Scouts of America should allow gay members could culminate with a vote on a new policy Wednesday.
But no matter which way the vote goes, activists on both sides aren't going to be satisfied.
The controversy pits leaders of religious groups that sponsor about 1 million Boy Scouts against activists who want the organization to end its ban on openly gay Scouts and Scout leaders.
Neither side is happy with BSA's proposal to let local troops decide if they want to allow gay members.

And exactly how would we go about this, sir? Or is this just the standard exhortation without any realism attached?

My contribution will stop today pending the vote. I earned Eagle in 1979.
I am praying for a good outcome for this.
If this passes, the Scouts are done. The Girl Scouts are already there.
It seems that the moral decay in this country is growing exponentially.
When they learn to say no to the corporate sponsor money.
That’s all this is.
from the Christian Post a few days ago:
. . .”The New Jersey Star Ledger reported today, in an editorial supporting the Scouts’ decision, that Intel announced last September it would stop donations to the Scouts unless it stopped excluding gays. A month later, pharmaceutical giant Merck followed suit. UPS announced last month that it would no longer give to BSA because of its ban on gay scouts, volunteers and leaders.
The BSA website lists some of their current corporate sponsors, including AT&T, Bass Pro Shops and ExxonMobil
Vote postponed until May.
You can bet the BSA will surprisngly vote for the faggots. If the Dummycrats cheated the last 2 elections, they’ll manage this one too.
so when do we get to hear about the result of this vote?
Many idiotic people, (executives, legislators, judges and other magistrates) lie and say they are personally opposed but that change is inevitable. Therefore punitive consequences ought to be imposed on any who dares put an abomination on the agenda because to even consider it gives it psychological validity to them many idiots among us.
We don't let our scouts play with knives, fires or on the Interstate and we don't give flaming perverts who feel entitled to anal sex with our scouts, access to them!
You are right. Thank you for expressing God’s true message. He does not want us to fuel the fires of hell. He loves us all, and wants us to turn away from sin, not embrace it.
Rejecting murder does not make people homosexual. If you’re going to continue calling for the mass murder of homosexuals, you should at least look it up in a dictionary so you know who your intended victims are.
Maybe you should warn me again. Apparently I wasn’t listening close enough the first few times you warned me that God is commanding you to murder me for resisting evil. Warn me again, and I’ll try real hard this time to cower in fear.
Riiiight. I logged into your account and called for the mass murder of homosexuals, and of myself for refusing to defy God and go on a murder spree for you. Sure, that was me.
Their offense is against Him, not us.
He did not delegate that responsibility to us. Murder is still sin.
On the contrary, Jesus command to us is to go into all the world and preach the gospel and make disciples. That's what we're been empowered by the Holy Spirit to do.
Your attitude would end up justifying the Inquisition.
Jesus died for those sins just like he died for yours and mine.
God is not willing that ANY should perish but that all should come to repentance.
Vengeance is God’s. HE will repay.
Our commission is to spread the gospel and make disciples, not to be God’s hangman.
Free Republic does not advocate or condone racism, violence, rebellion, secession, or an overthrow of the government.
Your calls for killing of homosexuals is way over the line and your attempting to use Scripture to justify it is more than reprehensible. It's an abomination.
many churches already have in-house alternatives to the Boy Scouts.
In the baptist church it’s called the Royal Ambassadors

Right. There are also Awana groups.Guess this is the way it’s going to have to go ...
Thanks, homos, for destroying the BSA. One of the greatest character building organizations the world has ever known.
