Is everyone (else) going to stop shopping at Target, WalMart, Costco, K-Mart and other stores because they support gay marriage and Planned Parenthood? I don’t think so because it’s impossible. You could never shop anywhere, ever!

There is an issue here at stake ... not just the business one but the emotional one. There is a child involved and an innocent child! The link between Planned Parenthood and my Girl Scout troops is weaker than the link between Planned Parenthood and Target. I think scouting is a valuable tool in raising children and I do not want to abandon the program to the enemy. I intend to stay and hold the line as long as possible. This organization does some great things.

It seems to me that it’s almost a witch hunt with the Girl Scouts based on very shaky allegations that seem to only exist in internet blogs. There is a ton of misinformation out there about the Girl Scouts floating around the internet. Don’t take it all at face value. I have looked through the various anti-GSA sites and found that they all link each other and re-circulate the same stories. And the merry-go-round of recirculating stories tends to pop up every February when the cookies go on sale. Hummm...

The Girl Scouts official policy is, “The Girl Scout organization does not take a position on abortion or birth control, and these topics are not part of the Girl Scout program or our materials. We believe these matters are best discussed by girls with their families.”

If you don’t want to take their word for it, the National Federation for Catholic Youth Ministry investigated the Girl Scouts already and have refuted the allegations for years. The U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops started an investigation two years ago and hasn’t yet ruled against the Girl Scouts—they expressed concerns to the Girl Scouts and the Girl Scouts made some changes and everything settled down—but no ban. I trust Church organizations more so than stuff I find online—so that’s good enough for me.

But if a person really still has a problem with it, don’t buy the cookies. If you really want to support the local girls and leave the national organization out of it, you can always give a donation directly to the troop. 100% of the money given to a troop stays in a troop and is spent on those girls.
