Numerous Boy Scouts Return Their Eagle Awards

“Today I am returning my Eagle Scout medal because I do not want to be associated with the bigotry for which it now stands. I hope that one day BSA stands up for all boys. It saddens me that until that day comes any sons of mine will not participate in the Boy Scouts.”

Christopher Baker

I am an Eagle Scout. As such, I suppose I have a dog in the fight regarding the Boy Scouts of America allowing sodomites to serve as Scoutmasters in their organization.

To state the obvious, the sodomites aren’t really upset with bigotry as is said in the letter above. What the sodomites, and the useful idiots who support their sodomy are upset with is that people don’t share their bigotry. The sodomites are bigoted against anyone who would suggest that a morality that leads to a life expectancy for a 20 year old gay or bisexual man that is 8 to 20 years less than all men is something to be avoided like the plague. The sodomites are bigoted against anyone who would dare suggest that the best role model for very young men probably aren’t Scoutmasters who find other Scoutmasters to be pin up material for their tents. The sodomites are bigoted against anyone who doesn’t share their perverted moral code.

And speaking of “moral code,” in what moral universe do the former Scouts who are sending in their Eagle badges live in? When they were Scouts they took an oath,

Boy Scout Oath

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.

Do sodomites really believe they are fulfilling their duty to some god when they engage in action that calls for the source of life to be surrounded by death? If there is such a god his name is Molech.

And since sodomy, as a lifestyle, cuts decades off a man’s life how does such behavior keep him “physically strong?” How is it that the sodomite is a “help at all times” to his co-sodomite with whom he is engaged? Especially when one considers the STD’s and ADIS that are typical in the sodomite community?

And what of the oath to remain “morally straight?” By what standard, and in what world, is sodomy embraced and said to be “morally straight?” Only in the world of Dr. Moreau or in our current culture, which amounts to much of the same thing as proven by sodomite former Boy Scouts getting all righteously indignant because the BSA doesn’t want their boys to be chaperoned by perverts.

When the writer of the letter above piously says “I hope that one day BSA stands up for all boys,” does he mean that he hopes that the BSA will one day stand up for boys who are rapists? Does he mean that he hopes that the BSA will one day stand up for boys who like farm animals? The point here is that the BSA must have a standard that excludes boys who will engage in certain kind of aberrant behavior. Sodomy is aberrant behavior just as is any number of other sexual perversions. If we are going to have Scoutmasters who are sodomites then why not Scoutmasters who are necrophiliacs or why not Jerry Sandusky as a Scoutmaster?

The Boy Scout Oath above includes a claim of fidelity to the Scout Law.

Scout Law

A Scout is

trustworthy,
loyal,
helpful,
friendly,
courteous,
kind,
obedient,
cheerful,
thrifty,
brave,
clean,
and reverent

As the Scout Oath talks about “Duty to God,” I take these adjectives to only find their meaning in reference to God and to be part of the duty that a Scout owes to God.

I could write reams on each one of these adjectives but I will only focus in on “obedient.” If a Boy Scout is to take his “Duty to God” seriously and be obedient then that obedience must be consistent with the way God speaks and the God of the Bible (the only God there is) explicitly says that sodomy is sin. If then the BSA is to be obedient, per their own Scout Law, they must exclude sodomite Scoutmasters from their troops.

And the fact that anybody has to provide an apologetic for why that is so, reveals how twisted our culture has become.
