What would a contraction by at least a third mean to the GLB-SA?
MOVE? Hell . . . do it!
Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!
Some in this state-AL-have already done so. They are getting all kind of hatred from those who think it is wrong for the SB to cut ties.
They are demented disease ridden two legged plague rats!
What this means is that if the churches would stand up for Biblical principles, the Boy Scouts of America may reconsider their decision.
The BSA National Executive Board lobbied the religious institution leaders very hard during JAN-APR 2013 to go along with the BSA regardless of how the vote went.
BSA YEA -
1. LDS = Mormon
2. PCUSA = Presbyterian
3. ELCA = Lutheran
4. TEC = Episcopal
5. UCC = United Church of Christ
6. American Judaism = Reformed and Conservative branches
7. U/U = Universal Unitarian
BSA Probably -
1. DoC = Disciples of Christ/Christian Church
2. Moravian
3. Cooperative Baptist Fellowship
4. Alliance of Baptists
5. The Association of Welcoming and Affirming Baptists
6. The American Baptist Churches USA
BSA Fence Sitters -
1. UMC = Methodist - leaning YEA
2. RCC = Catholic - remains to be seen
BSA NAY -
1. SBC = Southern Baptist Convention
2. AOG = Assembly of God
3. LC-MS = Lutheran
4. PCA = Presbyterian
5. American Judaism = Orthodox branch
So sad!
The gay agenda is not to force gay kids into the BSA. The agenda is to force the BSA into declaring they will accept gay kids, thereby costing BSA the support of millions of $$ in support. Set, spike, game.
The church has gotta do what they gotta do.
if you don’t it’s tantamount to approval of their position.
you don’t see queer groups bringing in speakers and groups that don’t approve of homosexuality and welcoming them as friends.
I notice that the institutions that voted YEA or MAYBE ( Except maybe the LDS) are the one’s LOSING members while those that voted NAY are the ones MAINTAINING or GAINING or GROWING in numbers
don’t forget MCC - yes bsa - the ‘gay’ church
However, up to this point Scouting had, in effect, a "Don-t Ask, Don't Tell" Policy, which allowed boys who might be having some sexual/gender difficulties, to join the Scouts and remain in the troop as long as he didn't "come out," i.e. make an issue out of sexuality.
I think that policy was right. And I don't think you can call an adolescent boy who is experiencing some degree of sexual turmoil, a "demented disease ridden two legged plague rat." He may well just be a confused and lonely boy.
Not "coming out," not making a point of sexuality, and having a chance to interact on a wholesome basis with normal boys and men, can help affirm the kid's true gender/sex identity and bring him through to manhood on an emotionally healthy basis.
Boys need that.
Boys don't need to be called demented plague rats.
The libs have long prepared for this day. They will move in and fund the BSA, carefully removing all influence to Godliness in the process. What will be left will be a zombie organization that leads kids to evil instead of good. Get out now - try to starve the corpse before the libs pump formaldehyde into it. No more money, no more use of facilities, don’t buy the popcorn. Check your charitable deduction at work, make sure not a dime is going to BSA (like many others I dropped contributions to my employer’s charity-of-choice because they defunded BSA - betcha the bucks start flowing again). Sad for the millions of current and former Scouts, but it’s no longer your father’s BSA. Salt that loses its flavor is worthless.
No, boys don't need to be called that.
Sodomites do!
Freep-mail me to get on or off my pro-life and Catholic List:
Please ping me to note-worthy Pro-Life or Catholic threads, or other threads of general interest.
The gays and marxists want control of the BSA brand to indoctrinate kids. The boy scouts are not going away. It’s similar to how they took over the Girl Scouts a couple decades ago.
