This whole thing is wrong on several points. Let me preface by saying I am pro-scouting and pro-/Judeo-Christian. They both foster a positive spiritual and secular culture that this country is fast losing. However, I don’t find any scriptural command in the Bible that churches should be promoting organizations outside of the church itself. The churches should stick with their original mission. Although I am a total skeptic of the origins and doctrine of Mormonism, I have no doubt of their “Christian” morality and decency. To exclude them from scouting leadership is ridiculous and too divisive. Parents that are so concerned their kids might be influenced by the “wrong things” in public ought to be more proactive in first training them at home.
"Go ye into all the world..."
Luke 18:16
But Jesus called the children to him and said, "Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these.
2 Corinthians 6:14-17
14Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?
15And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel?
16And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.
17Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you.
How much 'division' is then OK with you?
How can you even say that if you don't even know what it means to be a Christian?
