The Boy Scouts of America's National Council has voted to ease a long-standing ban and allow openly gay boys to be accepted as Scouts.

Speaking of trying to get clear of the homoconspirators, what ever happened with that movement by some Stateside Episcopal congregations to obtain episcopal oversight from the Anglican Church in Africa? They were going to try to call on an African bishop who was known for a straight backbone and straight talk, I read somewhere.
The thing is, most scouts join when they're about eleven years old. That's when I joined over 50 years ago. At that age, virtually no boy knows anything about sex. At least in my time we didn't. Why would an eleven-year old boy announce that he is a homosexual? There's absolutely no reason for anyone when entering the Scouts to announce their sexuality at that age or any age.
Krav maga' ..... street fighting invented in the 30's, to help Jewish kids fight off Hitler Youth and Brown Shirt toughs.
Damn those deviants for trying to change that.
My view is Biblical, as in Millstone, Neck, Deep Blue Sea.
well, certainly you are correct about some of the proponents of this change.
having a “gay” oriented boy in a scout troup is fine with me, what is not fine with me is making “gay” BEHAVIOR officially approved in the Scouts.
the distinction is important (to my little way of thinking anyway). The official organizational policies should uphold moral standards so that all the other boys learn them. This is a big part of growing up to be a man in society. Besides, as I remember things ... there’s probably enough “playing around” in scout tents anyway.. without officially sanctioning it and teaching that it can or even should be continued as a “perfectly normal lifestyle” -— Allowing that a small number of “gay” boys will adopt a “gay” lifestyle for the remainder of their lives, ok, I just don’t think it is at all good for them to “learn” in scouts that this is fine and dandy and Ok and perfectly wonderful...or whatever.
just my thoughts. Far better to look around and find, or organize if need be, a scout-type group for the boys that does endeavor to uphold moral standards. And if a “gay” kid want to join, fine... just tell him he’s very welcome but “gay” scouting behavior in the tent or swim pool or wherever...is not approved to be part of his scouting education and experience, is all.
Morphing into the Obama Youth Brigade.
You mean like the Komsomol?
Oh, really? Speak for yourself, John Alden.
The Boy Scouts will go on, and almost certainly be just fine. Period. All the raging aside from everyone who finds this decision wrong, including myself, doesn't change the fact that the Boy Scouts will soldier on and probably thrive.
And on what fading ray of pink-and-lavender sunshine do you base this feckless opinionation?
ick
On JC Penney I guess?
:p
Go ahead and say it about the Usurper himself. You won't be wrong. And you might feel better.
Civil Air Patrol now requires what amounts to a diversity oath (at least for the adult members), has really clamped down on small-group "high adventure activities" for cadets, and has already had the prerequisite diverse National Commanders. Once the DHS got their nose in the tent - pre-Obama, at that - CAP started changing.
The parents who home-school and turn their kids over to CAP once a week really need to be careful, because some squadrons are already problematic. Yes, there are some great people in there yet, but as an organization it is certainly no more a sinecure than the BSA was. My guess is that the BSA Explorer/CAP memorandums of understanding will remain in place now that the Scouts have crossed the line.

ugh. I’ll leave out the CAP thing from now on.
In my lifetime, I've seen the word "gay" transformed from its rightful meaning to be corrupted by the sodomites. Their sin is not only the deviancy of their behavior but also destroying a perfectly fine word. I'm old enough to remember when the line, "...do we now our gay apparel..." from Deck the Halls didn't cause amusement.
The irony is (and it was probably intentional) is that "gay" which means happy, carefree and joyous was usurped by the homosexuals, a most unhappy, miserable and twisted collection of creatures.

I do not know. I have been out of the church since the
mid 90s, and out of America since early 2000s.
I do recall the idea of joining with the African Anglicans, and I think many Episcopalians went with the Anglican churches in the US.
post the bull will ya?
