    I was a cub scout and boy scout - I would not let my grandson join. Of course they only have themselves to blame - with all the child abuse..

      I wasn't a scout, but whenever I see this crumbling to woke-ism it makes me ill.

      If child abuse is to blame, then the Catholic Church may want to change it's name, too.

        Well lets be honest, it was largely homosexuals that were to blame. In both cases. Of course the coverups did not help.

          About time they stopped desecrating the name of the Boy Scouts of America seeing how they abandoned the moral principles of that organization a long time ago.

              I suppose it could have been changed to Scouting for Boys!

                I had no idea that the Boy Scouts of America was a sacred institution.

                  Kind of:

                  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.

                    Boy Scouts of America making this big change to be more inclusive

                    A) I thought the had already done this
                    2) Plenty of alternate options have popped up for those who want more of a classic "Boy Scouts" experience.

                    For the first time in its history, The Boy Scouts of America (BSA) is set to change its name as it seeks to foster a more inclusive organization.

                    The rebranding will go into effect on Feb. 8, 2025, the organization’s 115th anniversary, when it will become known as Scouting America.

                    Officials say the name change aims to make everyone feel welcome, while the move is also being seen as an attempt to move on from bankruptcy following a flood of sexual abuse claims. Last year BSA agreed to pay $2.46 billion to settle claims by some 82,000 former Boy Scouts who said they had been sexually abused by BSA officials and volunteers.

                    The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

                    You have no idea about a lot of things.
