The BSA Executive Committee recently released a resolution which will be presented to the National Council for a vote on May 23. To the surprise of many, the resolution addresses only “youth membership,” leaving in place the prohibition on open homosexuality on the part of leaders.

Perhaps it is time to purge the BSA Executive Committee of its heretics who believe that a little immorality is all right as long as the leaders are not openly homosexual. What kind of logic is that? How long before gay leaders are allowed? It is time to purge the Executive Committee. Let them start their own version of the BSA.

The day they let homosexuals in, is the day the BSA will end. Pity that they cannot see this.

If you let them get their foot in the door it will end with them sticking something else in your butt.

Has the IRS taken a position on this yet?

Why can’t they understand we do not want homos in the Scouts. These institutions must be preserved as they were if we are to overcome radicals trying to destroy our culture.

As a Catholic I must say this is a no-brainer; they’ve cost us millions (aided and abetted by some in the hierarchy itself), and our previous Pope clearly banned them from seminaries (I guess they were allowed in before if they weren’t “active” - no more).

The problem is that BSA is letting its enemies frame the debate. The question is not whether BSA should let homosexuals in or place them in leadership positions — they always have. The question is whether the BSA should make an official statement or policy on this. The answer is no. The Boy Scouts are not a sexual proposition. Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell is a perfectly acceptable policy. It’s perfectly OK to regulate affection and discussion within a private organization. The Boy Scouts do not prohibit homosexual sex among minor scouts — they prohibit sex among minor scouts. The scouts do not prohibit explicit demonstrations of affections among gay scouts, they prohibit explicit demonstrations of affection. When discussion turns vulgar, it is stopped whether that discussion is homosexual or not. This is no different than prohibiting alcohol, drugs, weapons, pornography,. or any other behavior that is not consistent with scout law.
So, BSA, take this off the table. Our organization is not about sex. Let the schools and media obsess over this. We have other things to teach our kids.

NATIONAL CATHOLIC COMMITTEE ON SCOUTING (NCCS) ISSUES STATEMENT WARY OF BSA RESOLUTION

Boy Scout officials conducted a survey in recent months on whether to change the long-standing membership policy. The survey found that 72 percent of the chartering organizations oppose changing the policy. That corresponds almost exactly with the percentage of chartering organizations that are faith-based. And a great many of them are Catholic parishes.

How can Catholic churches sponsor troops with leaders who live in open and avowed opposition to the truths of the Catholic faith and the teachings of its Church? It is a question that all Catholic delegates must ponder before they vote in Grapevine next week.

A faction in the national leadership of the BSA wants to get rid of the longstanding membership policy against “open and avowed” homosexuality. But the way it’s going about it is not worthy of the Boy Scouts.

Maybe not, but it is worthy of a deceitful Alinskyite community organizer.

Once a society has become suffused with decadence it is virtually impossible to reverse it.

“While perspectives and opinions vary significantly, parents, adults in the Scouting community and teens alike tend to agree that youth should not be denied the benefits of Scouting.”

Oh, that crap again. The homosexuals can have all the benefits of Scouting now--just form their own organization.

Or is one of their perceived "benefits" the ability to attempt the perversion of morally upright youth?

Clearly, assuming this treachery fails, those members of the executive council, who are in fact big donor corporate proxies, should be purged with all due speed, as they are a cancer in the organization.

That they threaten to take their corporate funding with them is a given, and well worth giving riddance to bad rubbish. It is little more than “30 pieces of silver” to betray and undermine, with the intent to destroy, the BSA.

The left have long been skilful at co-opting organizations to support the leftist agenda, to the detriment of their original purpose, or to destroy them. For unless you embrace the leftist agenda, you are “the enemy”, and are unworthy of life.

The BSA has just one chance with this meeting. If it fails, then it is over. If the leftists have stuffed the ballot box, which the Democrat party has long mastered, then a hundred years good works will be for naught.

Given the experiences of Penn State and the Roman Catholic church with adult male homosexuals and boys under their care, anyone who thinks the BSA should allow homosexual leaders is either blinded by the ideology of the homosexual agenda or in favor of child molestation, or both.

No it isn't, and the Supreme Court agreed in the James Dale case in 2000.

This is a typical homosexual cabal at work, undermining from the inside and from nearby contacts in business and the community that the Scouts rely on for help.

The campaign continues.
