Second ping, you’ve suddenly become very quiet about this.
Well, yeah. Had to go away, but now I am back.
1. Went back and looked at the 2/05/2013 transcript of Ralph Reed's interview on NewsMax.com. Yes, he did say it would be a mistake for the BSA to change its membership policy to include open homosexuals. The very next day BSA national announced it was suspending the National Executive Board meeting vote on the policy and would conduct further study, which of course led to the "Voice of the Scout" survey distritubed in early March.
2. Reed's comments about only ~30% of the chartered units would have to be worried regarding a membership change because they are chartered to non-churches is totally bogus - either deliberately misleading, hopelessly naive, or totally disengaged from Scouting. The pro-homo denominations will not even blink and welcome the pederasts. At some point these homosexual adult volunteers will come into contact with other scouts not in their units. It is unavoidable if your unit goes to district events or summer camp.
3. Right now The National Council helps cover some of the legal bills for units which are sued for neglect because a pederast preyed upon Scouts. This bank account is limited. The opposition knows it and is playing the long game to bankrupt the BSA.
4. Others on the original thread pointed out the problematic relationship Ralph Reed had with convicted lobbyist Jack Abramhoff and so-called conservative activist Grover Norquist (real concern that he is in bed with Islamists). Yes, maybe not fair to convict by association, but you are judged by the company you keep.
5. Based upon what others have posted on my original thread and this one, I think it is safe to say that you have been "schooled" regarding WORLD magazine.
