If Boy Scouts say OK to gay scouts, will they still leave out Atheists?

31. They are not more vulnerable in general. I never said they were.

There is no connection between pedophilia and homosexuality imo and I have never tried to make a connection. Others have, apparently. My point is that all kids are vulnerable to pedophiles. When you put boys in an all male environment, then those kids who are feeling more insecure about themselves, gay or straight, they tend to look to their leaders, counselors, role models, mentors, priests, people with power, for advice and guidance. That puts the predator in a very powerful position. I would say that gay kids or those struggling with sexual identity would be ideal prey for pedophiles. I have encountered pedophiles and they are incredibly slick and manipulative. My opinions are based on my own experiences in life, not anything written in a tabloid.
