I've never heard of a case where they were granted use of such facilities, and Christians were not.

San Diego, just a few weeks ago, judge barred the Boy Scouts frfom using a park based on his assertion that they were a religious organization.

Sounds like that has to do with the fact that they're a religious organization rather than a Christian organization. Individual Boy Scout troops are backed by different religious groups, including Jewish, Hindu, Muslim groups etc.

Personally I disagree with that decision, but it's not the point. Are Jewish, Muslim, Pagan, or Atheist groups allowed to use the park while the BSA is not?
