Do they still pledge to be reverent?


I’m not sure. That part is in Arabic.

Yup. Didn’t see that coming. Such prejudiced parents not allowing their kids to be raped by faggots. How dare they!

Yeah, we had our share of weirdos back in the 70’s, but I imagine actually telling them they’re welcome to be stalkers in an organization of kids doesn’t help. Here’s one thing I would tell myself as a kid back then if I could: don’t join the YMCA.

Most accurate assessment. I doubt all of these incidents sharpened in just the last few years.

I suspect that they started admitting perverts and girls when the organization was clearly dying off; in my area (northeastern NJ) there is little enthusiasm for scouting, yet old troops have a lot of land.

This is a the result of demographics; the “replacement Americans” are very leery about sending their children overnight with unrelated adults - and most of the Americans themselves have no children to send.

They came to a fork in the road and chose the wrong one. It led to a dead end. Good. Natural and logical consequences.

>> They were ALWAYS there, lurking.

I agree. In hindsight, I believe that one of my scoutmasters in the 70s was a homosexual, probably a pedo. Fortunately for me, he only favored the boys who didn’t have fathers or older brothers.

Good. Another useless organization that’s been hijacked by liberals. They insisted upon running it. And they did so. They ran it right into the ground. Like they do everything they touch.

They did this to themselves. Suicide.

Oh and backto its Christian roots for its morals and behaviors.

It didn’t so much have Christian roots as much as it had American, or Western Civilization, roots, which was decidedly Christian INCIDENTALLY.

When those were uprooted, everything else went.

I don’t think we can have a Christian Scouts without a Christian nation.

It’s actually Trail Life USA, a Christ centered outdoor adventure organization for boys

It is actually happening already in Utah plus parts of Idaho, Arizona, Nevada and Wyoming.

When the Mormons completed their exodus from the organization, there simply were not enough members remaining to support the extensive Boy Scout infrastructure in those areas.

I heard Mormons were somewhere around 20% of their membership nationwide. In those areas, it was closer to 75%. Quite a price to pay to please the 2% of the population (or less) which is Sodomite. And that is just one sect with a lot of data to support what happened.
