The Boy Scouts of America is considering removing its ban on homosexual membership. So much for the part of the Boy Scout Oath about being "morally straight."

Re: BSA
if their considering homosexual membership maybe they should have the lesbians join the boy scouts and the flamers join the girl scouts.JerrBear wrote:The Boy Scouts of America is considering removing its ban on homosexual membership.

Re: BSA
Mr. JerrBeer,
I talked with a big supporter of the Scouts today, and his big concern is gay scout leaders rather than the kids themselves. The explanation I got was the local chapters will still have the right to refuse membership, even though its OK on the national level. If, you can understand that. I think its a bunch of bullshit myself, and I'll bet the scouts are going to lose a lot of support.
My I propose the 'Salt-Lick Challange' ?
Best regards,
Bonz

Re: BSA
The term morally straight was really never meant to be about sexual orientation....especially back when it was put into it. A lot of people now days just choose to read it that way to try and justify their position.JerrBear wrote:The Boy Scouts of America is considering removing its ban on homosexual membership.

Also, you suggest that gays allowed into the boy scouts will lead to more children being molested.
Usually, or from what i notice...when someone is outed as having molested little boys, they usually aren't admitted/flambouyant gay men.....its the "straight" acting dads, popes, teachers....that do that kind of thing.
How many "straight" catholic ministers or whatever their title is were found to be gay for little boys? To me i guess you don't have to worry about the gays that acknowledge and are proud of their gayness.
.........
Another thought...i don't know if being gay or straight has anything to do with pedophilia....im sure there are plenty of straight pedo's, gay pedo's...and closeted gay pedo's....orientation probably doesn't increase if the person is sexual attracted to children, in my opinion anyways.
Re: BSA
I'm sure someone is going to get angry at me for this.... but yeah, all them popes running around loose could be an issue; what with there being so many and all. Zero, cue Palpatine.

YOU sexualized "morally straight," not me. The BSA Oath goes back to before "straight" was first used to describe heterosexual individuals.Chrisadamley wrote: The term morally straight was really never meant to be about sexual orientation....especially back when it was put into it.

YES, I do!Also, you suggest that gays allowed into the boy scouts will lead to more children being molested.
Recently released BSA files show hundreds of examples of little boys being molested by Scout leaders going back decades...
How many Catholic priests have you heard about that molested little girls?How many "straight" catholic ministers or whatever their title is were found to be gay for little boys?

Re: BSA
What does it matter if you say your gay, if you want to molest little boys (as sick as that is) and you'r gay, but gays arnt allowed into the BSA then you'll just pretend to be straight. It's not like being black or having leprosy, you can easily hide if your gay or not.Recently released BSA files show hundreds of examples of little boys being molested by Scout leaders going back decades...Also, you suggest that gays allowed into the boy scouts will lead to more children being molested.

Re: BSA
Jerr how did i sexualize the term morally straight?
Your comment on "so much for the part of the boy scout oath about being "morally straight"....and the fox comment
Clearly is saying that morally straight means straight in the sense of not gay. If you didn't mean it that way i understand, but thats how it reads.
......
How many of the boys molested where done so by flambouyant gay men? Allowing openly gay men in isn't going to change the rate at which boys are molested. As you say its happened alot and the gays aren't allowed in. They just hide it. And to be clear they are hiding liking little boys, being gay is different then that. Could be both but they should be looked at as two things
...
I would bet money there are plenty of priests that have molested little girls. just dont hear about it as often.
....
I will ask again though...do you think being gay really makes a difference if you like children? Its a complete different attraction. You could be attracted to little boys, but NOT be attracted to grown men.
So you could NOT be gay in your head, NOT flambouyant so nobody knows anything. Just a regular dude that is attracted to little boys. Now i will say thats messed up, but thats how it works.
Attraction isn't always so simple. Not all little boy lovers are gay man lovers as well. Just as not all gays are little boy lovers. Do you see what i mean?
There are men that are attracted to little girls that AREN"T attracted to real women.

Re: BSA
In addition to my last post, just was thinking....
Jerr i think the problem is you associate being gay with liking little boys. When the two have nothing to do with each other. Does that make sense?
This is a good analogy....I and i presume you are attracted to women...but we aren't attracted to little girls. The fact that we like women sexually...has nothing to do with whether we like little girls sexually. Right? I would go as far to say i bet there are grown men who are sexually attracted to grown women, AND little boys.
I think that help clear up what i was trying to say
Not fighting with you jerr just a discussion.
