“Robert Gates, who is BSA president, told the group’s national meeting that the ban on gay adults needed to end, saying it was no longer sustainable.”
What the hell is that supposed to mean? Not sustainable?
The “end” of Boy Scouts is exactly what the fags are interested in.
“It will, however, also allow units with religious ties to “continue to choose adult leaders whose beliefs are consistent with their own”.”
Allow is the key word there. Very soon the board will decide that they will no longer allow them to choose their leaders.
disband it now
it no longer has a purpose
My God, once upon a time I thought I would never see this happen. The Boy Scouts are no longer an organization Christian organizations can promote and fund.
If their troop leader IS gay but not "out", then how is that any different than it is now?
The bigger danger to the continued existence of the BNA is the failure of good men to step up as leaders and churches or other organizations to support them financially.

Madness.
They also came out with a new Acronym for BSA:
Boy, Sodomy’s Awesome
Parents who subject their boys to the BSOA are exposing them to potential to RAPE....
This society is ripe for destruction by the Divine Lord.
Not surprised. BSA’s position has been crumbling for some time now, and with the momentum coming from the SCOTUS ruling and some other trends, it was probably inevitable.
The biggest factor of all was probably the deep inroads the gay community have made in the younger generation’s mindset. While I tend to think most of the polls overstate popular support for gay marriage, etc., there is a clear trend along generational lines.
The under-30 crowd, the folks most likely to have kids of scouting age or near scouting age, tend to be very supportive of gay marriage and the concept of gay rights in general. Some polls show the support as high as 2-1 in favor. Again, I think that’s a bit high, but when you consider other polls have indicated a large percentage of those same younger people believe gays make up over 23% of the general population, rather than about 3%, you have an indication of a group whose views have been heavily influenced by media, entertainment, and so on.
Be prepared! Thats the Boy Scouts marching song,
Be prepared! As through life you march along.
Be prepared to hold your liquor pretty well,
Dont write naughty words on walls if you cant spell.
Be prepared! To hide that pack of cigarettes,
Dont make book if you cannot cover bets.
Keep those reefers hidden where youre sure that they will not be found
And be careful not to smoke them when the scoutmasters around
For he only will insist that they be shared.
Be prepared!
Be prepared! Thats the Boy Scouts solemn creed,
Be prepared! And be clean in word and deed.
Dont solicit for your brother, thats not nice,
Unless you get a good percentage of his price.
Be prepared! And be careful not to do
Your good deeds when theres no one watching you.
If youre looking for adventure of a new and different kind,
And you come across a Boy Scout who is similarly inclined,
Dont be nervous, dont be flustered, dont be scared.
Be prepared!

You knew Gates would be so stupid. FOADIAF, BSA! We’re done.
Quite simple. Get your boys out of boy scouts now.

We hold to a politically incorrect belief: Men are not culturally dispensable. Christian civilization requires that older men pass down their wisdom, virtue, and example to younger men. Young men are lost without their elders to train them.
Why didn’t they make it a 2fer....and eliminate “duty to God” in their oath?
I weep.
