Excellent point, but see post #24.

The rank and file in scouting is dominated by conservative church sects. I don't think they will get it past them. But they do have to go through the motions.

FWIW, unless scouting has changed dramatically since I was involved (both as a youth and as an adult leader), there is nothing that even asks about a boy's sexual orientation.

A gay inclined boy would have no problem getting into the organization as long as he can meet the "morally straight" requirements. Those who don't care to do so have no more business joining the B.S.A. than a heterosexual pervert or pothead.

B.S.A. is an organization designed to turn boys into useful and productive young men. It is not a baby sitting club to turn useless punks into street thugs. The government sponsors gangs for that purpose.

It certainly is. I was a member.
