Just what, in God's name, does homosexuality have to do with Darrell Lambert's atheism? It really annoys me when the gay crowd try to coat-tail their message onto other stuggles. Like a few years ago in NYC, when they tried to equate the so-called "Stonewall Riots" with historical civil rights struggles. A bunch of creepy transvestites start hitting cops with their purses, and all of a sudden they're heroic passive resistors? Please.

You know what the Boy Scouts ought to do? They should make a public statement saying "Mr. Labert is right. We were wrong to exclude a person simply because he is an atheist." They should give him has merit badge and go about their business. Message sent.

Actually, the Stonewall riots in 1969 were in retaliation to the NYPD who were in the habit of flagrantly invading the Stonewall gay bar and carting all the patrons off to the pokey. A clear violation of basic civil rights.
