Not saying the pressure did not work, but my first thought is we should strongly consider the source of this “report”.

Nobama and his MSM strongly beleive in propaganda by outlandish rumor for divide and conquer.

Talk about a lose-lose. The kind of parents who think this is OK usually don’t enroll their kids in activities like Scouting anyway. However the parents who DO enroll their boys in scouting are typically traditionally minded, and that’s not event taking into account the vast numbers of families who, regardless of their social philosophies, simply would rather not leave their children in the company of sodomites.

Alternate title: BSA close to halting acquisition of new members from Christian households.

I think the Boy Scouts are being blackmailed. Apparently, they have had molestation issues that they tended to cover up rather than refer for prosecution. It’s the same old story that we have seen with Penn State and many religious denominations, most notably the Catholic church.

Whatever.

The Boy Scouts are now dead. What loving parents would entrust their sons to an organization that willingly allows homosexual “leaders” to take them off into the woods?

it would represent a profound change on an issue that has been highly controversial

Only in the morally bankrupt and perverted atmosphere of New America would the idea of freedom of association within a private organization be deemed "controversial."

If this goes through, NAMBLA won't be able to contain its excitement.

It is only Christians who believe that homosexuality is a sin.

How many Christians in America?

Pray for revival.

The closeted gays have finally wormed their way to the top of the Scouting leadership. This will never be voted on by the membership and will as usual be dictated from the top.

Anyone only needs to recall what happened when the Catholic Church provided gay priest access to altar boys to see what will happen the day that the Boy Scouts provide gay scout leaders access to the boys. The lawsuits that will be forth coming against the Boy Scouts when the perverts get through will financially destroy the entire organization.

For those who need it straight from the horse's mouth ...

http://www.scouting.org/membershippolicy.aspx
MEDIA STATEMENT
Boy Scouts of America
Monday, Jan. 28, 2013
Attributable to: Deron Smith, Director of Public Relations

“For more than 100 years, Scouting’s focus has been on working together to deliver the nation’s foremost youth program of character development and values-based leadership training. Scouting has always been in an ongoing dialogue with the Scouting family to determine what is in the best interest of the organization and the young people we serve.

“Currently, the BSA is discussing potentially removing the national membership restriction regarding sexual orientation. This would mean there would no longer be any national policy regarding sexual orientation, and the chartered organizations that oversee and deliver Scouting would accept membership and select leaders consistent with each organization’s mission, principles, or religious beliefs. BSA members and parents would be able to choose a local unit that best meets the needs of their families.

“The policy change under discussion would allow the religious, civic, or educational organizations that oversee and deliver Scouting to determine how to address this issue. The Boy Scouts would not, under any circumstances, dictate a position to units, members, or parents. Under this proposed policy, the BSA would not require any chartered organization to act in ways inconsistent with that organization’s mission, principles, or religious beliefs.”

I will stop all support of and send my Eagle Medal and Certificate back to the BSA Headquarters with a letter telling them the award has no honor anymore.

Won’t tolerate such crap as they ignore the scout laws and oath in exchange for cash.

Don’t do it BSA ... Don’t do it.

Genesis 13:13
Now the men of Sodom were wicked and were sinning greatly against the LORD.

Genesis 18:20-21
20. Then the LORD said, "The outcry against Sodom and Gomorrah is so great and
their sin so grievous
21. that I will go down and see if what they have done is as bad as the outcry that has reached me. If not, I will know."

Genesis 19:4-7
4. Before they had gone to bed, all the men
from every part of the city of Sodom--both young and old--surrounded the house.
5. They called to Lot, "Where are the men who came to you tonight? Bring them out to us so that we can have sex with them
."
6. Lot went outside to meet them and shut the door behind him
7. and said, "No, my friends. Don't do this wicked thing.

 

Psalms 12:8      The wicked freely strut about when what is vile is honored among men.

Ain't this just FABULOUS??      More?

Isaiah 3:9   The look on their faces testifies against them; they parade their sin like Sodom; they do not hide it. Woe to them! They have brought disaster upon themselves.

2 Peter 2:13b  Their idea of pleasure is to carouse in broad daylight. They are blots and blemishes, reveling in their pleasures while they feast with you.


 

 

Ezekiel 16:49-50
49. "`Now this was the sin of your sister Sodom: She and her daughters were arrogant, overfed and unconcerned; they did not help the poor and needy.
50. They were haughty and did detestable things before me. Therefore I did away with them as you have seen.



2 Peter 2

 1.  But there were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you. They will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the sovereign Lord who bought them--bringing swift destruction on themselves.
 2.  Many will follow their shameful ways and will bring the way of truth into disrepute.
 3.  In their greed these teachers will exploit you with stories they have made up. Their condemnation has long been hanging over them, and their destruction has not been sleeping.
 4.  For if God did not spare angels when they sinned, but sent them to hell,  putting them into gloomy dungeons  to be held for judgment;
 5.  if he did not spare the ancient world when he brought the flood on its ungodly people, but protected Noah, a preacher of righteousness, and seven others;
 6.  if he condemned the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah by burning them to ashes, and made them an example of what is going to happen to the ungodly;
 7.  and if he rescued Lot, a righteous man, who was distressed by the filthy lives of lawless men
 8.  (for that righteous man, living among them day after day, was tormented in his righteous soul by the lawless deeds he saw and heard)--
 9.  if this is so, then the Lord knows how to rescue godly men from trials and to hold the unrighteous for the day of judgment, while continuing their punishment.
 10.  This is especially true of those who follow the corrupt desire of the sinful nature  and despise authority.   Bold and arrogant, these men are not afraid to slander celestial beings;
 11.  yet even angels, although they are stronger and more powerful, do not bring slanderous accusations against such beings in the presence of the Lord.
 12.  But these men blaspheme in matters they do not understand. They are like brute beasts, creatures of instinct, born only to be caught and destroyed, and like beasts they too will perish.
 13.  They will be paid back with harm for the harm they have done.
Their idea of pleasure is to carouse in broad daylight. They are blots and blemishes, reveling in their pleasures while they feast with you.



But there IS hope!!!

1 Corinthians 6:9-11

 9. Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived:
     Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders
10. nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God.
11. And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.

 


If you could NOT change, you would be in most pitiful shape...

What does the original Boy Scouts - UK - do?

I’d figure Euros would allow homos but who knows?

Homosexuals should never be in any position of power over children of the same sex. Homosexual males should no more be scout leaders than straight males should be girl scout leaders.

Homosexual, because there’s nothing gay about it.

This sounds like pure cowardice - leave the local chapters to face the lawsuits and the hate. Either they stand for what’s right or they don’t - they can’t have it both ways.
