Boy Scouts of America in Bankruptcy

[WCD9973]

While all valid points - The truth is the boy scouts have declined for 2 very simple reasons.

1- Increase in Org sports (Including Travel teams)
2- Video games.

Girl scouts are dropping as well.

As youth sports participation has increased, and esp the Travel sports (Which become year round) any kid who is a bit athletic tends to participate more in that.

Meanwhile kids that arent in that group found video games and would rather play that.

yes -Then there is a group that arent either -And they continued with BS / GS - but that number has declined.

It became about teaching gender roles and the rise of female empowerment girl didnt want to be boxed into such notions

Girl scouts on the local level is mostly about selling cookies.

Both BS and GS numbers increased and decreased at almost the same rates at almost the same times.

Could be too that admitting girls to the ranks shot them in the foot.

They couldn’t decide what they wanted to be to be called a wannabe.

Trying to mix the original Christian mission with secularism, admission of homosexuals as leaders, and adding girls so they aren’t even unique to boys appears a mixture few could stomach

Nah, pretty sure it was the pedophiles.

Rephrasing

At what point in its history did the Boy Scouts of America evolve from teaching boys & young men outdoor skills to a haven for child molesters?

Same as churches.

The original mission of Scouting was open to all religion not just Christianity., Powell was very clear that faith in something higher was important not devotion to organized religion, the main religion at the time just happened to be Christian.

but scouting is popular across the global in non christian countries.

The BSA banned atheists.

BSA is the blacksheep of the scouting world.
funny enough the largest scouting organization is in a muslim country.

The issue with BSA is most of their funding comes for Church group who then set policy, like banning gay children or atheists, its has nothing to do with scouting it has to do with private group pushing their agenda via ransoming donations.

Started with a sick Obama Judge that said girls can be boy scouts too.

[CanadianJudo]

everything is Obama fault.

[Weedhopper]

Especially knowing Obama and Hillary had a 16 year plan to distroy America.

Who? You claimed it was a judge who made the ruling. Who was the judge?

You sound like a fan why?

There was no judge, BSA is a private group they don’t need to let anyone in.

Probably around day 2.

Last April, exposed court testimony showed the organization believed more than 7,800 of its former leaders were involved in sexually abusing more than 12,000 children over the course of 72 years.

[Weedhopper]

Obviously a freak for putting girls in boyscouts.

your pushing fake news.
