In case any of you on the BSA pinglist are having any doubts or regrets about leaving the Boy Scouts, this article should make your decision easier.
BSA ping.
How incredibly horrible.
Reminds me of pictures of Boy Scouts by Normal Rockwell.
How tragic and disgusting to see such a fine organization go into the cesspit.
Just WOW!
Thanks for the ping.

Condoms Required...
We’re here because we allowed the Left to control the dialog.
Out kid lost interest a bit before the gay decision. He wouldn’t say if that had anything to do with it, just that sports were more important to him now.
Making little boys safe for the queers, or the queers safe for the little boys? Is there anything more disgusting than queers, er, I mean gays. I almost forgot to use the proper queer jargon. North American Man Boy Love Association.
Around day 8 of the jambo I spent half the day on an adventure trail with an Australian scoutmaster. His Australian troop had been augmented with a smaller Dutch contingent which had girl members. He said he saw the girls taking their birth control pills during breakfast. He also said that while on an earlier visit to the jambo infirmary (field hospital) he was told by attending staff that up to that point during the jambo there had been ~40 requests by girl participants for pregnancy tests and that ~ half were positive.
Like BSA, I presumed most, if not all nations (there were 84 represented at the jambo with an overall total of 14,434 scouts officially registered), had troops touring Australia and New Zealand for a week+ before arriving for the start of the jambo. Given the test method of that time, it was certain that these girls had already been impregnated before starting on their world tour.
The Australian scoutmaster also said that the infirmary had a supply of condoms available to scouts if they asked for them, but the Scout Association of Australia (the host organization for this jambo) did not advertise this fact to the jambo participants. The World Organization of the Scout Movement retains oversight of all world jambos.
Almost forgot. There was a beer garden on the jambo grounds that was restricted for adult scouters only (don't remember if the minimum age was 18 or 21).
My church gave up sponsorship of its Scout troop a number of years ago. The policy to admit gay scouts and gay adult supervisors was too much of a potential liability issue which we couldn’t just ignore. This was in light of numerous multi-million dollar lawsuits against the Catholic diocese here for pedohile priests. Virtually 100% of those incidents were homosexual. Also our state has abolished the statute of limitations for bringing such suits, so you could be potentially still be liable for something that happened many years ago your church had no knowledge of. It would only take one of those suits to bankrupt our church and we were not willing to take that kind of a risk with an organization whose morals and standards no longer aligned with ours.
