All 1600 judges should be impeached.

[evolved_rage]

This is OK, as I bet most Kalifornia judges wouldn't be allowed in the Boy Scouts anyways...

[Bonaparte]

Pssst, hey Nat! They couldn't care less about the 1st Amendment.

[Alpha One]

I'm bet that they'll just look the other way when it comes to those judges that are members of NAMBLA though.

This does open up the very real question of whether this could be interpreted as requiring California judges to quit any church that views non-celibate homosexuals as sinful and doesn't allow them to be clergy. That would include almost every mainstream religion in the U.S., and not just the Christian denominations either.

The same people who complain about the Catholic Church and its priest sex scandals....also complain about the Boy Scouts method for preventing the same thing from happening to them.

Having been a youth and an adult member of the Boy Scouts for 15 years (and an Eagle Scout), I know that this is one of the minor rules (and there are a ton of rules that deal with everything under the sun) in place to protect the Scouts and to prevent abuse lawsuits against the Boy Scouts of America.

But, as in many colleges and universities, political correctness often triumphs over the fundamental diversity of beliefs that the First Amendment protects

Pinheaded “intellectualism,” the cradle of the leftist trend for National Socialism and cult indoctrination. “Diversity” is code for tyranny.

For your consideration, edification (and violent regurgitation!), we present the newest PC BSA Merit Badge, introduced in California recently. Look for them in YOUR neighborhood soon:

The proposed RIMMING, SNORKLING and GERBIL STUFFING badges are still being designed and will be -- er -- OUT soon.

Here we are yet again with the intolerant Gaystapo out in full force. The idea here is this: if you are someone who believes it's imprudent to send your teenage son out on overnight camping trips with men who have a disordered sexual attraction to males (which it is), you're a bad and evil person; if you are someone who believes that homosex is immoral and against the will of God (which my Church teaches, and which I and millions others believe), you're a bad and evil person; if you are someone who doesn't want your son taught, explicitly or implicitly, that male/male anal intercourse, or putting a man's sexual organ in your mouth is healthy, or good, or natural, or something to experiment with (none of which they are), you're a bad and very evil person. What the homosex movement doesn't realize is that they're continuing to turn honest and good people against them - people who are perfectly content to let them live their lives as they see fit. The end result of these tactics, of course, will be to cause judges who were in the Boy Scouts to deeply resent the homosexual movement - as well as many people who simply don't want their freedoms taken away from them by dictatorial leftist government. This is just what has happened with a great many parents who have been tagged as bigots for their beliefs by the intolerant homosexual activists. Homosexuals would be a thousand times smarter (which they are incapable of) if they simply let the Boy Scouts be. But as they attack the Boy Scouts relentlessly, they only earn themselves more enemies. Very stupid; very foolish.
