Would you send your child to camp with a homosexual scoutmaster?

The Scouts have sent out a survey to their current and prior members asking if they should change their policy toward membership based on sexual orientation. At risk is one of America’s strongest conservative youth organizations being hijacked by the pro-homosexual movement.

It’s hard to see this survey and the BSA’s request for on-line comments as anything more than an attempt to get cover for whatever decision their Board makes later this year. But it is very important that pro-moral Americans deluge the Scouts with encouragement to stand up to pro-homosexual bullying! Please see my important update below – Mat.

The Boy Scouts of America recently sent out a 13 question “Voice of the Scouts” survey to well over a million of its currently registered scouts, parents, and alumni asking their opinions on the BSA’s “careful and deliberate review of our membership policy, as it relates to the national membership restriction regarding sexual orientation.”

The questions address different scenarios including…

Is it acceptable for a gay scout to tent with a straight scout on an overnight camping trip?
Should a lesbian be allowed to lead as a den mother to a Cub Scout den if the sponsoring church teaches that homosexuality is a sin?
Should an openly gay person be accepted in a troop where the charter is to a church whose doctrine teaches that homosexuality is wrong?
Is it acceptable for an openly gay adult leader and heterosexual leader to take adolescent boys on an overnight camping trip?

This survey is not open to the general public. Invited participants have been receiving their surveys over the past several days.

++Here is what we can, and should, do!

The BSA is asking you for your input about their policy prohibiting open homosexuals from participating in the Scouting program through an open comment period.

We need to respond to their request in force because pro-homosexual activists are making a major effort to bury the Scouts with responses from their misguided perspective!

We have added a comment section on our Boy Scouts of America petition page, which will allow you to add a comment to be included in our next petition delivery.

I am asking you to take a moment to add your comments to the petition, which will be delivered to the BSA headquarters prior to the end of the open comment period and prior to their board’s all-important vote in May.

The more comments we include, the stronger the statement will be! I assure you that those who oppose our viewpoint will be rallying their base to force the Scouts to cave in to their pressure and change their group’s pro-moral policy.

Here are a few suggested comments, if you need them…

Dear Boy Scouts: Please do not backtrack on your core values. I urge you to maintain the moral integrity of your organization by not changing your ban on homosexual participation.
Dear Boy Scouts: Do not change your ban on homosexual participation in your organization. For over 100 years, your group has maintained the highest of moral standards. Please do not fall prey to current activist pressures.
Dear Boy Scouts: Please do not change your ban on homosexuals participating in the Scouts. Such a policy change would violate the moral values inherent in the Scout Law and Oath, and it would be a slap in the face to the churches, religious organizations, and local volunteers who sponsor and fund the vast majority of Scout troops.

Dear Boy Scouts: For more than a century, the Boy Scouts represented cherished American values. Do not abandon your principles. Say “no” to the pressure being put on you to change your policy on homosexual participation. I believe the result would be disastrous.
Dear BSA Board of Directors: Scouting should hold firm to the transcendent values the organization has long promoted, demonstrating the courage that is asked of every Boy Scout. Do not cave to activist. Stand strong on your time-proven policy!

Please, take a minute right now to help us encourage the Boy Scouts to hold to their principles by encouraging your likeminded friends, family, church members, or social groups to join you in signing this petition today!

++Be sure to get your copy of "Stolen Honor, Stolen Innocence: How America Was Betrayed by the Lies and Sexual Crimes of a Mad ‘Scientist’.”

We greatly appreciate friends like you who are standing with Liberty Counsel as we work to restore the moral integrity of our nation, and usher in a New Birth of Freedom in 2013!  That’s why I believe Dr. Judith Reisman's latest book, “Stolen Honor, Stolen Innocence: How America Was Betrayed by the Lies and Sexual Crimes of a Mad ‘Scientist’” is a book that you will find extremely enlightening.

The (truly) mad scientist who secretly spawned an immoral and perverted sexual revolution was Professor Alfred Kinsey, author of the famous Kinsey Reports on human sexuality.

When I talked with Dr. Reisman about our campaign to encourage the Boy Scouts to hold the line against pro-homosexual activism, she told me something very interesting about Alfred Kinsey…

The “father of the sexual revolution” in America honed his predatory practices on younger men while “serving” as a boy’s camp counselor in his young adulthood!

I feel Judith Reisman’s powerful book answers the question, “How did we get to the place that the Boy Scouts of America might send young men on camping trips with homosexual Troop leaders?”

 Dr. Reisman has conclusively proven how Kinsey's frauds gutted our child and family protective laws, as well as justified Planned Parenthood's school sex education, Hugh Hefner's pornography plague, and the "gay rights" movement. The Kinsey Institute still gets millions of your tax dollars.

Dr. Judith Reisman’s book is a scathing indictment of Kinsey’s bogus studies – and shows the indisputable link to America’s moral decline.
