The Boy Scouts Of America Is A Too Highly Political/religious Movement And Should Either Be Forced To Change By Legislation Or Be Made Illegal.
All that rubbish about atheist and agnostics not being allowed to join because they don't recognise god. And homosexuals being banned because our conduct would have a negative effect on the morals they are trying to instill. It seems to be me they are just trying to indoctrinate impressionable children, if Obama can't talk to children because he is indoctrinating them into politics why should this group be allowed to do the same.

Why not start a New Order Kddan?

Suppose you could possibly change the name to Boy's C Out!

BOY'S COME OUT! (OF THEIR TENTS!)

 What about just a New World Order where I'm in charge of everything? The wisest thing ever said by George Bush was "this would be a hell of a lot easier if this was a dictatorship........as long as I'm the dictator."
Lol, despite my support for democracy I do sort of agree.

That proposal is a lot easier said the negated. You don't have to go to the extreme of disbanning the freaking boy scouts. Why would you even want to?
In actuality the boyscouts probably represent the clearest problem america has with honesty today.
Way to raise the issue, but the solution isn't dissolution, it rarely has to be. Reformation for the boyscouts would be the least extreme way to affect the rest of the like-minded country who still promote that social group to their kids.

I don't agree with their views so I would not allow my children to join. That is my choice. No one is forcing my kids to join so no one should force them to change their rules.

There organization is private and voluntary. They should be able to do as they please within the limits of the law.

What if I said all the gays shouldn't gather or foster any children? It wouldn't be fair to knock my kind either!

They have every right to be however they want to, they're a private organizations. However, they shouldn't get any government money or tax-credits outside of their regular tax-exempt status. That means no $1 park rentals to hold their jamborees, etc.

You should be made illegal if you don't change you dirty Aids infested sodomite fag ways. You only hate the boy scouts because they ban your sort and they make a pledge to God.

 I really don't want you commenting on my debates unless you have something fair and logical to say. And I don't have Aids so don't even bother starting on me.

I disagree with some of their policies but I don't think it warrants making the organization illegal. And frankly why don't gays and atheists go ahead and make their own version of the Boy Scouts which everyone could join -- maybe even become rivals to the Boy Scouts and eventually replace their organization at the top of the boys' groups list?

 True, thanks for your input.
I do find it rather suspect that they include the line about keeping themselves morally straight in their pledge.

It's a PRIVATE organization. They can do what they want.

 Isn't ACORN a non government organisation and private? But aren't you always saying that the government should reign them in?
All institutions need to be governed by certain rules and the scouts are a discrimatory institution because any non Christians are banned from joining.
