The reason that the scout leadership doesn’t want to admit gay people is that they wrongly assume that the gay people will compete with the pedophiles for choice scouts.

The thing Noel said actually seems to be in favor of allowing gay scouts. “Sexuality is for adults to grapple with.” Right. So why are you even mentioning it at all or taking a stance either way?

This! This is what I’ve been wondering. Why in the hell would who someone is sleeping with and how they’re doing ever be brought up at a scout’s meeting? Their own argument is invalid.

WhatTheHolyHeck 4 months agoThe level of insult to gay folk is just unbelievable. I don’t know how so many of my gay friends can manage to maintain a smile when every single day they’re barraged with offensive slurs from people they’ve never met and will never meet. They’re called evil, abnormal and an affront to God. To every single person who asks why straight people fight for gay rights, pay attention. This is the reason. Nobody should have to face that kind of hostile, mindless opposition for simply existing and wanting equal rights.

rossr 4 months agoThank you. Thank you. Thank you. For some reason—I think because I have been kinda down lately (the winter with its lack of sunshine really gets to me)—I have been reading the comments on GLBT-related articles lately. All the homophobia and hatred has been getting me down. Why am I doing this to myself? And then I read your comment—and you redeem a great deal of my faith in the human race. Thank you. Gay kids are killing themselves because homophobic schmucks dominate the discourse Re: gay rights. The message that “If you are gay you are a perverted, evil sinner who will burn in hell forever” is consistently reinforced—from early childhood on. If you tell me that I am worthy of death enough times, I just might pull the trigger for you. It is time for us as decent people to stand together and say ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. You don’t get to use your “Christian morals” (talk about an oxymoron) as an excuse to bully children into suicide. Shut your moronic mouths, you knuckle-dragging troglodytes. You are impeding our progress as a species.

sarac28 4 months agoI don’t really side with the people in this so don’t attack me please but I am curious..are the boy scouts associated with a religion? I read somewhere that they have some affiliation and therefore they would have the right to do as they please in accordance to what they believe..just looking for the facts!

rachelk14 4 months agoI’m not sure if it’s a specific religion, but you’re supposed to be religious in the Christian sense to join and participate. Although when my younger brother was in Scouts they let him join even though our family isn’t religious. I think certain troops don’t care too much.

Ashley S 4 months agoActually, Erin Burnett on CNN yesterday interviewed McKay Coppins (from Buzzfeed, ya’ll!) about the influence churches have on scouting, and interestingly, how about a third of those churches are Mormon. http://outfront.blogs.cnn.com/2013/02/05/mormon-influence-on-boy-scouts-on-gay-ban/

I think it’s currently being run by the Mormon church. Normally they would be in their right to do what they wished, but since they are taking government money, their practices should be non-discriminatory.

rexyw 4 months agoHow funny, what I just posted above, scrolled down to see this question. So let me reiterate: In Utah, the BSA is as much of a “private organization” as the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints…mostly because they work hand in hand. Also, try to find a pedophilic Scout Leader that’s NOT a righteous member of the LDS Church. They’re Utah’s version of Catholic priests.
