BOY SCOUTS, February 6
As a former leader in Scouting, with three Eagle Scouts in my family, I hope I speak for many in scouting. We love the B.S.A. organization and everything it stands for.
When I heard they were considering acquiescing to political and economic pressures to admit gay members, I was devastated.
Just because some have decided that homosexuality isn’t wrong, doesn’t change the fact of an absolute biblical truth — God specifically condemns homosexuality in the Bible along with adultery, greed, pride and other sins. Unilaterally declaring something no longer immoral does not make it so.
When did the Boy Scouts, the last bastion of wholesome American boyhood — the last stand of moral high ground — decide that the political and monetary needs of the organization were more important than the welfare of millions of boys?
The lesbian mother on the news made this statement, “I am not a threat…do I look like a threat?” Well, yes you do. If the leaders of the B.S.A. let you decide for them the future of scouting, then the B.S.A. no longer represents a majority of scouts.
If we don’t call a halt and start working towards a reversal of this trend, we are destined for a complete breakdown of society and our nation will crumble.
