I've never been a scout and neither has my daughter, although it seems the Girl Scouts operate a bit differently than the BSA. But I've got coworkers whose sons are scouts and one who used to work at their headquarters. They tend to be in somewhat similar situations, but their kids get the experience with the scouts while the parents teach them the truth at home. I hope the scout master doesn't look at you any differently, but we can and are good without God. Good luck to you and your son in the future.
