Question for everyone:
The Boy Scouts of America also wanted to adopt a "no gay members" policy( which was upheld by the us supremem court) because they felt that it was a contradiction to what they stood for. Why is this "diiscrimination" ok to the eyes of many? I am going to assume that they will not be doing any service within the gay community or with any gay service orgs or programs.
From the Boy Scouts of America:
"More than 90 years ago, the Boy Scouts of America (BSA) was founded on the premise of teaching boys moral and ethical values through an outdoor program that challenges them and teaches them respect for nature, one another, and themselves. Scouting has always represented the best in community, leadership, and service.
The Boy Scouts of America has selected its leaders using the highest standards because strong leaders and positive role models are so important to the healthy development of youth. Today, the organization still stands firm that their leaders exemplify the values outlined in the Scout Oath and Law"
