I have a friend whose son is in the scouts here in Maryland, a Catholic church based local troop. His wife volunteers for them too.
He told me nothing has changed, that they can reject anyone for any reason.
And talking about gays, gay rights, gay feelings, etc, anything sexual related is a reason they would.
From what I can find out no word is coming down from the worthless USCCB. Looks like they are going to pass the buck and leave what to about homosexuals and the Boy Scouts to the individual parishes. So if that’s the case liberal priests will welcome them with open arms and parishes ran by conservative priests will no longer sponsor them. IF this is the case it leaves the Catholic Church wide open for all kinds of lawsuits when a parent sues the parish after some sodomite sexually abuses their son OR a Catholic scout leader tells the kid he is living an immoral lifestyle. The USCCB needs to put out firm guidance and I see no way that parishes can allow openly homosexuality in the scouts that are sponsored by the local parishes. Not only would it make a mockery of the Boy Scout oath, but also of the Holy Bible.
Your friend would be wrong. The new membership standard of BSA is clear that we cannot reject homosexual boys.
