Well said E.T. I personally no longer donate to the BSA either directly or through United Way. The gay discrimination is pure homophobia. I have heard and read far more reports of Catholic priests molesting boys than I have ever read of gays. And I think the Girl Scouts haven't instituted similar rules against gays, have they?

I understand what you're saying, except impoverished children are not being denied the chance to join Boy Scouts because some heterosexual men are complaining that they can't promote their heterosexual agenda.

Unless I have completely misunderstood again. Don't gays want gay scout leaders who are able to openly state they are homosexual and then discuss homosexuality? I don't think that's appropriate in scouts or in schools.
