Thanks! I edited out some stronger wording, because a Scout is courteous. However, privately, it’s very hard to avoid a reviling judgment regarding the motives of people who would even consider this, having full knowledge of the experience of the Scouts and the Catholic Church.
We cannot keep every homosexual adult or teenager out of Scouting, but we must make every possible effort. They are self-defined by male-on-male sex, and there is simply no place for any sexual activity in a youth organization.
On that last point, if we go on in Scouting, it will be interesting to see how mixed-sex units (Venture Crews) work out. There’s potential for considerable stress there, but on the other hand, some other countries have mixed-sex units that apparently operate smoothly.
Outside of the U.S., Scouting is co-ed almost everywhere except Muslim nations.
