Wow, that is a whole lot of assumption and projection on your part.
Standing up against perversion is not silly it is commanded by God.
I never said that my church sponsored a scout troop. My troop is sponsored by the Moose Lodge. Again, you are assuming and projecting and more specifically, in error.
And when did I ever say that I would abandon a homosexual? Again, you are assuming and projecting. The truth is that I have worked with adult homosexuals and have maintained that their beliefs and desires are a perversion of Gods true love. That there is a better way and that they need to abandon their sin instead of reveling in it. It is the change of mind that is repentance that we are called to make. The problem that most who are morally depraved, is that they see no need to repent of their sin.
However, since the BSA policy change, I can no longer be in a position of leadership as such comments would be in direct violation with BSA policy. It is the BSA tacit approval and acceptance of homosexuality that creates an untenable position for the witnessing Therefore, since the scouts have abandoned the principles of duty to God and being morally straight, I will no longer associate myself with them.
Weak is not standing up for your principles or beliefs. Weak is compromising over and over again until there is nothing left to stand for. It is “acceptance” and “tolerance” that has lead this nation away from it’s great calling.
And yet again, you assume that I’m going to be shirtless. The fact is that I always wear a black t-shirt or polo under my scout shirt. Removing my scout shirt will merely be removing the outer layer. Really, please stop these assumptions and presenting them as straw men.
You also assume that no longer supporting or engaging with an organization that I now disagree with is somehow not “fighting”. Yet a boycott is a well known form of protest. And that is exactly what I am doing. I am boycotting by no longer GIVING my time or money to that organization. I suspect that the BSA will follow a similar trend as the Boy Scouts of Canada in that within a few years, they will be less than half of their current size. All because thousands of others like myself will also be boycotting them. In the end, the BSA will be but a shadow of itself. Yet caught up in their pride, they will not acknowledge that which they have lost.
Lastly, ask yourself these two questions-
Where do you draw the line? At gay leaders? What happens when a 17 year old scout turns 18? Now do we kick them out? how long do you think that will last. Mark my words, within a few years, there will be a push to allow gay scout leaders.
#2 - Between God and Satan, which of the two is going to be more accepting of perversion and sin? And then who’s side do you want to be on?
Just post the video. I really want to see your “act of defiance” because it sounds like something a lefty girl I used to know in college would do. She wore a black t-shirt too.
