The Demise of the Boy Scouts

All this came to mind when a couple days ago checking out of a store I was asked if I wanted to donate to the Boy Scouts. No. Here's why. The demise of the Boy Scouts of America is at hand. Here's the reminder of the Boy Scout oath, all of us took at one time when we joined, and known by most even if they didn't join.

                                                                                                              

On my honor I will do my best

To do my duty to God and my country
and to obey the Scout Law;
To help other people at all times;
To keep myself physically strong,
mentally awake, and morally straight.

Since this was written and practiced, God has been tossed out; secularists and neo-atheists are in. [Neo-atheists by the way are those that claim not to believe in God and are more anti-Christian and do everything they can to be bigoted, intolerant hatemonger's to destroy Christians and Christianity. Traditional atheists just say they don't believe in God and go about their business.] Believing in country is out. We have a president of the US, his political party, and other assorted Leftists denouncing this country, President Obama saying this country isn't exceptional and inferring in speech after speech it's the source of many of the world's ills.   

Morally straight is now out of the question. Sexuality, especially the homosexual lifestyle, is the wedge that's split the organization. What the hell are adults doing getting kids involved in a discussion of who's banging who and who's using dildo's to bang each other? I also agree with the notion that dildos should be illegal for lesbians. If they don't want the real thing, they should be denied the fake thing.

  Scout Law

A Scout is trustworthy, loyal, helpful, friendly,

courteous, kind, obedient, cheerful, thrifty,

brave, clean, and reverent.

All those have been driven out too. Especially by the adult secularists, neo-atheists, anti-Christian bigots, and intolerant homosexual bigots. They have their own selfish agenda that demolished the Scout Law and Scout Oath. No thoughts expressed about helping young men and boys be better men and citizens.

This past May the Boy Scout "leadership" voted in their annual meeting by about 60%  to promote homosexuality in the Scouts. Next up is to allow homosexual men to be Scout leaders. We all know how well it worked out for the Catholic Church to have these kinds of men in leadership positions. Just what the Scouts need, male homosexual pedophiles to go with pubescent angst and confusion.

Since that May vote it's estimated about 300,000 members have left, and most Churches that have supported and funded the Scouts have withdrawn. Most Christian leaders have left.

They're forming a Scout organization named Trail Life USA. They are returning to the founding principals of the BSA's Oath and Law, which were Christian based. One example is the Scout motto "Be Prepared" will be "Walk Worthy".

This response to Leftist bullying was because the Leftists in the leadership positions of the BSA were afraid of losing funding from Leftist corporations, government departments (Leftist and anti-Christian by definition), and Leftist charities like United Way. Plus their greedy lawyers with all the lawsuits. How again does all that benefit young men and boys become better men and citizens?

The result was they got what they feared would happen if they didn't throw out the traditional principals of the BSA. Plummeting membership, so dues are going up from $15 per scout to $24 per scout. Always the Leftist strategy; blow a good thing and then take money from the victims of their policies. Those guys also manage to get themselves nice salaries; the top five BSA big wig's are getting a whopping $696, 862. Many if not most of the local BSA's councils in big cities are running deficits in the $millions. $3.25 million in LA. How in the heck does an organization that promotes being mentally awake, morally straight, trustworthy, helpful and thrifty end up $millions in debt?

Certainly not living its own values, but the values of Leftists, homosexual men that want to exploit boys, and

others that want to sexualize boys.

Trail Life USA

Trail Life USA is a Christian adventure, character, and leadership program for young men. The K-12 program centers on outdoor experiences that build a young man’s skills and allow him to grow on a personal level and as a role model and leader for his peers. Living the Trail Life is a journey established on timeless values derived from the Bible.

VISION

Our vision is to be the premier national character development organization for young men which produces Godly and responsible husbands, fathers, and citizens.

MISSION

Our mission is simple and clear: to guide generations of courageous young men to honor God, lead with integrity, serve others, and experience outdoor adventure.

MOTTO

“Walk Worthy”

Colossians 1:10  “… so that you may live a life worthy of the Lord and please him in every way: bearing fruit in every good work, growing in the knowledge of God, …”

OATH

On my honor, I will do my best

To serve God and my country;

To respect authority;

To be a good steward of creation;

And to treat others as I want to be treated.

Obama Shuns Boy Scouts

This is the 100th! year of the Boy Scouts of America. This is a pretty big deal. But like laying the wreath at the Tomb of the Unknowns on Memorial Day, Obama has to go play rather than be Presidential.

He could have spoken at the Boy Scouts Jamboree in Virgina today, and praise an organization that has played an important part in providing values that make good human beings and men, and guidance in becoming good citizens. What he has opted to do instead is to go on "The View", where Leftist women gang up on one Conservative woman. This to him is more important than acknowledging the tradition and success of the Boy Scouts.

The White House said it was a scheduling issue. ummmmm, the day of 100th anniversary of the Boy Scouts has been known for a hundred years. When did the White House schedule "The View"? It couldn't have been scheduled last week or next week? And what's the President of the United States, the most powerful political office in the world (at least until he started diminishing it) doing on a second rate gabfest? Then again, the White House said it wasn't "The View" that interfered with his stopping by and talking to Boy Scouts, it was a fundraiser. At least he's consistent. He went to a fundraiser in California when he could have attended memorial services for the men killed in the Gulf oil rig explosion.

Popularity move? The Boy Scouts currently have about 2.8 million members. “The View” hit a 14-week high in Women 18-34 (0.8 rating/282,000) and a 9-week high in Women 18-49 (1.2 rating/818,000) – since the weeks of 4/5/10 and 5/10/10, respectively. TV by the Numbers. At their highest 818,000 thousand women vs a couple million members of the Boy Scouts. That's a couple million with families of several people connected.

Barbara Walters inflating her ego: "This shows that both the president and first lady feel that our show is an influential and important source of information and news." Sorry Barbara, your show is not important or influential. It's a second class gab fest of some liberal women pretending they know what they're talking about.

Scout Oath
On my honor, I will do my best
To do my duty to God and my country;
To obey the Scout Law;
To help other people at all times;
To keep myself physically strong, mentally awake and morally straight.

Scout Law
A Scout is trustworthy, loyal, helpful, friendly, courteous, kind, obedient, cheerful, thrifty, brave, clean, and reverent.

Scout Motto
Be Prepared

Scout Slogan
Do a good turn daily

Our president does not have any of these values, and could not live up to them if he did.

He can, like the Liberal women on "The View", talk a lot about stuff he doesn't know anything about.

Birds of a feather.
