I was in an in town Webelos pack (part of the cub scouts/ part of the boy scouts) for several months. This was after being in the cub scouts for 2 years (on base in the Philippines). Until it was discovered I was Jewish.
I had an adult scoutmaster, if I remember correctly an eagle scout, tell me that the Boy Scouts of America did not need some damn jews. I was no longer welcome.

The idea that the boy scouts is deeply connected to Churches is not surprising. The idea that a boy scout troop is a perfect place for a pedophile is obvious. The idea that Pat Robinson has something to fear from homosexuals is ludicrous (seriously, picture that wrinkly ass, now try to get a hard on).

Yo, hateful old dude. The boy scouts are not being ripped apart by any "gay" agenda. They are merely dying off like dinosaurs do or evolving like survivors do.
Oh yeah, the evolution thing is real.
