I know of a whole bunch of Southern Baptist Churches in my home state of Oklahoma that sponsored Scout groups. I suspect this will end immediately.

Oh well, I have often thought - even though the previous generations of scouts were honorable - that they were basically secular (at least not sectarian), and it was sort of a conflict of interests. So, this will move the larger evangelical denominations (like Southern Baptists) to move back towards sponsoring their own brand of Scouting...although they will be more religiously focussed that traditional scouting was. Which, depending on one’s view, it could be a good thing.
