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.

I understand that if someone wishes to accept alternative ways of seeking the truth,they can, but taking on the tried and true American Christian values of the Scouts and attacking them for it is no different.
So when the shoe is on the other foot you dont like it.

Have you any experience, or information from National specifically about admission of pagans into Scouting?
And if it turns out, as I suspect, that this is conjecture on your part, could you tell me on what basis you make this conjecture?
