There haqve been FReepers who have commented in the past that their sons were banned from joining because they were not mormons...
Maybe ite just in some areas...
However if they could join, dont they have to listen to mormon teaching and are forced to learn mormon scripture etc ???
What about the Jamborees run by mormons ???
That may be, but it’s not universal. Like you said, it may be in some areas and as this article and some FReeper Scouters are pointing out, every unit can decide who they let in or not.
No, they don’t have to listen to Mormon teachings, scripture. They can opt out of church related activities that the Mormon Cubs/Scouts attend and just attend Cub/Scout related activities.
“Jamborees” (Camporees ?) run by and for Mormons would probably have a Mormon component to it. Attending such an event is optional if invited. Just be prepared (HA!) to abide by their rules for their event.
Usually, when it comes to interdenominational Scouting, there is a pretty good effort to focus on Scouting, not religion.
On Sundays, the Mormons are usually back home and any other Scouts still out will usually have a “Scouts Own” service.
As the Jewish Scouts would be honoring their Sabbath on Saturday. There is always some effort made to accommodate the various practices of Scouts from the various religions.
