Don’t know how true this story is but after seeing “Atlas Shrugged” Part 1 this past weekend, I think the BSA should simply “go Galt” and shut down operations before they allow this. Just like Hostess did with the union/Twinkie debacle a couple of months ago.
If this were the national policy to just leave it up to the locals that would bring in the pedophiles like nothing you've ever seen.
America is almost to the point of no return...The almost is questionable.
We should not be surprised really, people started to openly choose evil over good when they voted for Jimmy Carter,perhaps even before, but now it`s just more in your face rebellion against The Lord God.
Clinton twice, mind you never got a huge percentage of the vote, Gore almost won, but now a new low with Obama twice, and with him being totally open about his pro abortion anti Christian positions.
Look to the sky, look to the Lord Jesus
Not saying the pressure did not work, but my first thought is we should strongly consider the source of this “report”.
Nobama and his MSM strongly beleive in propaganda by outlandish rumor for divide and conquer.
Our local LDS troops already segregate quite a bit. They don’t even attend the local camp anymore(largest Council owned facility in the country). It’s been suspected they will leave anyway to create a coed youth group like Venture Crew.
Talk about a lose-lose. The kind of parents who think this is OK usually don’t enroll their kids in activities like Scouting anyway. However the parents who DO enroll their boys in scouting are typically traditionally minded, and that’s not event taking into account the vast numbers of families who, regardless of their social philosophies, simply would rather not leave their children in the company of sodomites.
Alternate title: BSA close to halting acquisition of new members from Christian households.
The greater problem for the Mormons are the stakes out there in the wilderness where they are the ONLY one and they’ve got these boys...... serious youth camp facilities are very expensive ~ always have been. Something Mormons could do in Riverside County, Utah, Snake River Valley or even Phoenix just can’t be managed in those other places.
I think the Boy Scouts are being blackmailed. Apparently, they have had molestation issues that they tended to cover up rather than refer for prosecution. It’s the same old story that we have seen with Penn State and many religious denominations, most notably the Catholic church.
Whatever.
The Boy Scouts are now dead. What loving parents would entrust their sons to an organization that willingly allows homosexual “leaders” to take them off into the woods?
Just remember.....every fag is a predator. How do you think they get their victims?
. . . and those individual Councils would likely leave it up to individual chartered organizations.
It's been done before. People forget that the Cradle of Liberty Council (Philadelphia) voted in May 2003 to end discrimination based on sexual orientation.
In 2003, however, the BSA sent the Cradle of Liberty Council a cease and desist letter, the Cradle of Liberty Council rescinded its nondiscrimination policy, and the COL Council went on to battle the city over rights to its building.
“according to scouting officials and outsiders familiar with internal discussions.”
Where’s the evidence that this is true? The lying media?
Too bad. It was once a great organization.
if so, my kids will never join.
Only in the morally bankrupt and perverted atmosphere of New America would the idea of freedom of association within a private organization be deemed "controversial."
If this goes through, NAMBLA won't be able to contain its excitement.
It is only Christians who believe that homosexuality is a sin.
How many Christians in America?
Pray for revival.
balderdash
ultimately a parent can decide whether his kid joins a troop headed by a rump ranger or forms his own Boy Scout troop. Why give “them” the Boy Scouts?
like the US Marines for example?
The closeted gays have finally wormed their way to the top of the Scouting leadership. This will never be voted on by the membership and will as usual be dictated from the top.
The radio version never mentioned the word “close”.
