Beware, ... lest this happen to the Boy Scouts of America.

[The Ghost of FReepers Past]

We need more Hans Zeigers and Ben Shapiros.

[mlc9852]

Unbelievable!

[Servant of the 9]

I hope that when push comes to shove, the American Boy Scouts will have the integrity to disband rather than become a parody of themselves.

Funny how homosexual and atheists want to force organizations to confirm to THEM, even if it kills the organization they want to join. They never want to go out and start the "Queer Boy Scouts" - funny how that works

[ncountylee]

Is NAMBLA active in England?

[Mr. Mojo]

Yet another nail in the UK's coffin.

...Muslims can pledge to Allah, Hindus to Dharma, and atheists to life in "good moral standing."

That's terribly intolerant of them. Who's to say what is meant my "good moral standing"? This certainly leaves out the Unitarians.

Today, homosexuals are allowed to become Scout leaders without question, because "there is no link between homosexuality and pedophilia, and therefore there is no justification for restricting membership on this basis."

Humm...?! I guess if you discount the fact that a far higher percentage of homosexuals molest boys than non-homosexuals then this statement could be accurate. Perhaps they're just experimenting with "opposite day" in England where true things become false and false things become true.

[Antoninus]

This completely unsurprising. Remember this?



Here we se a Knight of the Realm, Sir Elton John singing in front of some stripping gay "cub scouts."

Is it at all surprising that the UK can no longer tolerate a group like the real Boy Scouts who pledge to serve God? Is there a God in Britain any more??

This move would have made Hitler feel more secure; he would not have had to worry about the English youth.

British school taught wrong syllabus for a year!
ANI[ THURSDAY, JUNE 16, 2005 11:47:34 PM ]



LONDON: It seems that there are other ways to fare poorly in your exams, than not preparing adequately for them.


That is probably what is going to happen to students at a top British school, the Emmanuel College in Gateshead, who were taught the wrong syllabus for over a year.

The 15-year-old students realised this huge mistake only a day before they were to take their GCSE English literature examinations, and found that they had studied the wrong First World War poems.

I have 2 young boys in the UK. No way they're joining this movement.

[Clock King]

When two young people do form an emotional attachment, leaders should both support their need for some privacy together as well as help them to remember their other friends, who may feel rejected by the couple.

Oh..My..G-d! How did they let it get to this? Well, it WON'T happen here in the US. We need to get involved, shout it down, do whatever; this is just wrong. I can no longer respect English society.

[tnlibertarian]

As a supporter of Cub and Boy Scouts, of which my son is a member, what a load of bunk. We will not let that happen here. That being said,

Hindus to Dharma,

If I were a scout in the UK, could I pledge to Greg, instead? Dharma and her whole family are just too liberal.

[pollyannaish]

If you stand for everything...you stand for nothing.

What a shame.

[Luna]

Good grief! They've turned it into a club for pansies! And they let girls in? What a joke!

[Tax-chick]

This is incredible.

[lilylangtree]

By 2007 another 20% will drop out and eventually the organization ceases. I'm surprised with all PC changes in Britain that they keep the name "Boy Scouts".

[Born Conservative]

Isn't there a world jamboree coming up soon that's supposed to be in England?
