Do not suppose that your enemies will be placated by your surrender. You will be pressured to accept openly homosexual scoutmasters, then transgender girls who say they are boys or the Prince of Wales or male aliens from Alpha Centauri 3, then girls generally for all your programs, as theyve done in Canada, only to see their membership go the way of the Church of Canada, since no one will stand up for someone who stands for nothing.
You have betrayed your friends to assuage your enemies. May they treat you more handsomely than you have treated us.

Please ping me to note-worthy Pro-L
This makes me remember the days of pre-Vatican 2 when Catholics were actually discouraged from joining the scouts. They had their own version of it which was pretty tame. I was never allowed to be a Brownie because it was perceived as a Protestant organization! Maybe some of those who cooked up this negative idea had a premonition of the future.

What needs to happen is all of those private church based youth groups need to come together as a single entity using the constitution and religious rights as a basis for going forward with a totally new organization. Go back to what scouting was originally intended and go further to promote and teach our God give rights including teaching them the proper use of all weapons in the right of self defense.
I made it to Life with two Merit Badges to go before Eagle. I was sidetracked by focusing on my Brotherhood in the Order of the Arrow, then life got in the way because I needed to go to work. And from there on to my enlistment in the U.S. Army where I excelled because of what I learned as an Army Brat and a Scout who almost made it all the way. The Order of the Arrow, at the time, was the very best training for a subsequent stint in the military.
So, for one who was in the Scouts both in the USA and Europe, I say those gutless “leaders” who sold out to pagan forces can Kiss My Grits.
This is Sunday, conversely then, non-biblical quotes should not be allowed in this discussion as well.
You can call it drivel all you want - placing a name of my comment is weak and means squat.
You betcha - I’ll pat my back and all the families that show they know what ‘honor’ is. If one can’t do the right thing when the tests comes - they never had it before. HONOR to all that turns it back towards evil. The homo’s get BSA and the scouts keep their honor.
Don’t know about that.
Though I haven’t been active for quite a while.
This is electrified (in a very negative way) Scouts. Tens of millions of scouts.
I’m sure those who made the change, have had second thoughts.
And I’m sure those who have not had second thoughts, should be removed and replaced.
Just saying. Thanks for your comment.
Follow the money, gutless leaders received the corp. donations. Very small amount passed down to lower levels.
I pray that it happens.

This has nothing to do with trusting local scoutmasters. I trust my local scoutmaster, but he still is required to admit openly homosexual boys (and transgendered girls)as of Jan. 1st, and it won’t be long before he is required to admit openly homosexual adult leaders. Not my kids. Not on my watch.
How do you think we should consider the BSA now, if not dead?
Are you pro homosexual?
The problem is not just the presence of homosexual scouts (and soon-leaders). It is that BSA is now ENDORSING homosexuality, plain and simple. Unless you are pro homosexual, you will have a problem with that.
Finish the verse-”So, because you are lukewarm—neither hot nor cold—I am about to spit you out of my mouth.”
No, there is no half way. You are either for Christ or against Him. There is nothing in between.
Sad to see what we hold dear being given up so easily.
Its hard to oppose this momentum against us, whether it is in our constitutional values being trampled, lying presidents, atty generals, sec of treasurers, many govt officials, etc...
Those of us who point it out and speak of it are often the ones who are vilified...”oh, get over it. They all do it”, they say...
“Oh, well that makes it ok for them to slowly destroy our way of life”, I think to myself...
Get out of the BSA. They have gone to Satan. You will only be supporting sin. Save the soul of your children.
Send up the “white flag”?
Believe me, the homosexual crowd now senses weakness and will now not stop until the Boy Scouts of America send up the Rainbow ‘Gay Pride’ Flag. Take it to the bank.
Sad but true. The Homomob, like the Mafia, does business only one way -- do what we want or be destroyed.
Sometimes doing what they want destroys you anyway.

When they go to camp or National Jamboree they don’t know what “scoutmasters” they’ll have. (Except for the ones that come with them.)
Infiltrate a few NAMBLA members here and there and then see what you have.

Just substitute military leader for scoutmaster. See below. We are on a national decline.
It was a joy to read your post. I often reminisce about my days is scouting and fondly remember being elected to the Order of the Arrow. My time spanned between 1957 and 1966 but I could see some not so good changes taking place back then.
Our entire troop would summer camp at Pine Grove Furnace in PA and one year we shared the camp ground with another troop. That troop’s leaders did all the cooking, cleaning, camp setup and routine chores and the boys were pretty much left with a lot a spare time they wasted on vandalism and malicious mischief. I never made Eagle but this other troop had more than you could shake a stick at and considering their lack camping skills, it was puzzling to me at that time.
This latest move by BSA is a complete betrayal of everything Lord Baden-Powell tried to impart into scouting. How can anyone take the Scout Oath and Laws seriously anymore? It is truly a sad moment.
