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.
I was and remain an Eagle Scout. At 14 years of age obtaining the Eagle Scout award was a pretty big deal for me and something to this day I look back upon fondly. The Boy Scouts didn’t give those awards away and anybody who received one worked pretty hard to get it. I was in an especially good Troop. Troop 100 (later 400) of Sturgis, Michigan was led by Leland Thornton, an outdoorsy yet professorial type. Mr. Thornton had help from several of the Fathers and it was a large Troop of at least 35 boys as I recall.
We did it all in this Troop. We gazed at and learned the stars, we learned all the knots, we navigated by compass alone, we learned canoing, sailing, and fishing. We learned basic first aid. We learned how to survive in the wild on only what the wild provided. We hiked, backpacked, and biked. We camped, learn to build a fire with only a flint, and worked on erosion prevention projects. We worked with our communities, our Churches, and our families. 40 years later my chief regret is that I don’t remember more of the technical skills I learned in those early years.
Because my times with the Boy Scouts of America was so good, I am especially saddened to see that they have voted to let sodomite boys into their organization. I suppose it was inevitable given the direction that the cultural winds are blowing but I am still a bit lachrymose that an organization that was, at least in theory, supposed to build men, has now capitulated to an agenda that eviscerates the very notion of manhood.
There have been those who have reasoned that the Boy Scouts of America (BSA) should allow sodomites into their organization on the basis that such boys could learn the arts of manliness in the Scouts and so somehow be rescued from their self destructive sodomite ways. Such reasoning, though doubtless well intended, was misguided for several reasons,
First, the sodomite agenda didn’t want sodomite boys in the BSA so that the BSA could cure the sodomite boys of their sodomy. The sodomite agenda wanted sodomite boys in the BSA so has to mainstream sodomy into every nook and cranny of American life. Hence, those who argues that sodomite boys should be let into the BSA so that they might be cured of their sodomy went on a grand adventure of missing the point. That they were missing the point should have been evident when the LGBT types made it clear that they would not stop protesting the BSA until sodomite Scout Masters were finally let in as well, which, will happen soon enough.
Second, even if one is to concede the good intentions of those who argued that the BSA should allow sodomites into the BSA one can still point out that such reasoning inverted the truism that “one bad apple spoils the whole bunch,” into “a bunch of good apples makes the bad apple good.”
Third, let’s just posit, for the sake of argument, that sodomites are converted to heterosexuality upon becoming Scouts and learning what it means to be manly men. Does anyone believe for a skinny minute that the LGBT crowd wouldn’t be up in arms demanding that the BSA be closed off to sodomite boys if suddenly sodomite boys were giving up their sodomite ways because of the influence of Scouting? The push to get sodomite boys into Scouts was never about redeeming sodomites. It’s always been about enslaving the sexually normal.
Fourth, the argument to allow sodomite boys into the BSA was strange from a parental perspective. What rational parent would want their tender young sons camping over night in a pup tent with a possible sodomite who could recruit their sexually blossoming pubescent son into the sodomite agenda? I understand having compassion for wayward boys and so wanting to open the doors of scouting to them in hopes it would cure them but what about compassion for the non sexually wayward boys who will now more easily be recruited into the sodomite lifestyle now that sodomites are going to be allowed into the BSA? Sometimes it really is true that the tender mercies of the well intentioned are cruel.
Of course now with the addition of sodomite boys into the BSA the organization will have to reinterpret the whole idea of, “of doing my duty to God,” not to mention the pledge to be “morally straight,” found in the Scout oath. Likewise the BSA will have to reinterpret the meaning of several words in their Scout Law. Words like “trustworthy,” “helpful,” “courteous,” “kind,” “clean,” and “reverent,” will have to be redefined in order for a sodomite to take such a vow with any integrity.
Of course the whole purpose of this move is to reinterpret the whole BSA organization from a boy friendly organization dedicated to helping boys channel their budding masculinity into a cornucopia of mostly outdoor activities into a political organization that will help advance the LGBT agenda. This move to accept sodomites is one more brick in the wall that is being built by the revolutionary Cultural Marxist agenda in order to de-Christianize civilization. This move is one more success story of the Cultural Marxists whereby their long march through the institutions has secured yet another victory.
The defenders of this move sought to do what is typically done in order to justify wickedness and malfeasance. They played the victim card. For example, BSA board President Wayne Perry said in a webcast: “It was never our intent to prevent young people from being part of this organization.” This is a ridiculous statement that can only gain traction because the populace has been so dumbed down and is unable to think critically. Of course the BSA historically has intended to prevent certain young people from being part of the BSA organization. Would the BSA even now accept boys who are into necrophilia into their troops? Would the BSA accept boys who were having a sexual affair with their little sisters into the BSA? Would the BSA accept boys who like farm animals into their troops? Perry’s comments are jejune and serve as an fig leaf to justify his immoral decision.
As another example of the played victim card came from Zach Wahls, an Eagle Scout raised by two lesbian mothers. Wahls said the time has come for change,
“There is nothing Scout-like about exclusion of other people, and there is nothing Scout-like about putting your own religious beliefs before someone else’s.”
So, in this statement we see Wahls puts his own religious beliefs that require all people to accept sodomy in front of the religious beliefs of those who don’t accept sodomy. Apparently, Wahls has no problem in excluding people who will not join the BSA because their boys could learn the finer arts of sodomy in the BSA.
What has happened with the BSA reminds us again that all ideologies are totalistic and so are dominion minded. All ideologies because of that, by default, have a plan for total victory which is their plan for absolute dominion. What the sodomites have achieved with this victory over the BSA is to have taken one more step towards remaking the world in their image through the taking of dominion over the BSA.
The Boy Scouts of America no longer exists. It has become the Boy Sodomites of America.
