I never said you should belive what I believe.
I have given facts that I have derived from my own research
whether the writers of the books are not in agreement with your form of belief does not mean that many people who have followed these writers have not taken up those beliefs.

Much like the Catholic Church and many so-called christian denominations to a Christian like myself, I do not agree with them, My concern is such that if we have Wiccans of the beliefs some ritulistic cults have taken on, we would not be helping children by driving them into their arms.

I only try and focus on the teachings as laid out in the Judeo-Chrisitan Bible, that does not mean I am saying we should do away with freedom of speech and religion, after all the test here is to use our free will and make choices,
I do not agree that alternatives like Wicca is a better choice than the Boy Scouts and thier foundations.

If a pagan wishes to be a Boy Scout and admits that they are pagan, they CANNOT join the boy scouts.

The boy scouts have EVERY right to do that, but Pagans have EVERY right to start their own groups if they feel that it will be advantageous to their children.

Therefore the Spiral Scouts are a wonderful idea as far as I am concerned. and if you do not understand the spiral, you need to do a bit more research into paganism.
