meamemg, A Scout moving has nothing to do with loyalty to the Troop. Neither does your other question. Read the original post. This Life Scout just decided to try for his Eagle. Why? Where has he been? Sure signing up for an EMT class is a good thing, but what is more important - earning his Eagle or becoming an EMT? Sure he is to live the Oath & Law in his everyday life. And Scouting is part of his everyday life. But in this Scout's case, he hasn't been involved with his Troop & has no plans to be involved. He just wants his Eagle! Why? Ed Mori Troop 1 1 Peter 4:10

Maybe we should be asking the Scout why he wants his Eagle? Didn't seem to be a big deal up till now! Living the Scout Oath & Law in your everyday life includes Scouting. If he hasn't been involved in the Troop & doesn't plan to be involved in the Troop how is that being loyal to the Troop? And someone suggested switching the meeting night so this Scout could attend. You have to be kidding. That would be setting a dangerous precedent for the Troop. Anytime someone couldn't attend Troop meetings they could request to change the day of the Troop meetings! Absurd! Ed Mori Troop 1 1 Peter 4:10

This thread is funny! BTW, doesn't jkhny sound sorta like another poster that has been banned?

If he hasn't been to a meeting in over a year & can't attend in the future, it sounds like a lack of Scout Spirit. Remember, everyday life includes Scouting. I would also question the loyalty to his Troop. It doesn't seem like there is any. Ed Mori Troop 1 1 Peter 4:10

How about just telling him!

The responsibilities of his job are irrelevant to the action taken. What does that mean?

Does anyone else see something a little amiss here? Posters are bantering back & forth about whether someone who was a purveyor of child porn should have been fired or not. Who cares! The man was in charge of Youth Protection! And distributing kiddie porn! Sure not on his work computer but what's the difference where he was distributing it from? The fact is he was distributing kiddie porn and working for the BSA in charge of Youth Protection at the same time! That's ethical & moral! Sorta like a Christian minister selling Playboy subscriptions in his free time! Just wrong! OK. Now I would like a Teem & some wax lips, please! Ed Mori Troop 1 1 Peter 4:10

What time is Oprah on?

Kinda stinks the boys can't go door to door & ask for monetary donations for causes like this. But fundraisers are great ideas. Ed Mori Troop 1 1 Peter 4:10

Let's wash it all down with a Fresca or a Tab!

Pixi Sticks, Bun bars & Mary Janes! I loved wax lips!

I don't have a key for this door!

The San Diego cases. The one form Chicago regarding Jamboree. Once these are overturned the teeth in your attacks fall out! Then it's back to the public schools as charter partners! Now, about your membership in my club.........

YoHoo & Snowballs!

So, Merlyn, guess you don't wanna join my atheist only club. Too bad! You could have been a founding member! What are you gonna do when all this stuff is overturned by the SCOTUS? What will you threaten then? Ed Mori Troop 1 1 Peter 4:10

I've also got a box of Screaming Yellow Zonkers! Yum!

If you look at the 2004 numbers, it seem the biggest hole is from Bears to Webelos - down 3.6%. Total Cub Scouts are down 2% while Boy Scouts are only down 0.8% Looks like we are losing them before they get to Boy Scouts. Or there are a lot of Webelos not crossing over to Troops. Ed Mori Troop 1 1 Peter 4:10

I've got Blackjack & Clove! Sorry FScouter, no Chicklets!

Guess you aren't gonna join my atheists only club, huh, Merlyn?

Who wants gum?

Merlyn, Horse apples! The reason you don't explain is cause you can't! You keep on stating I can't learn! Nice excuse. You use it a lot when you are stuck. You refuse to explain why it is unethical for a public school to charter a BSA unit. You've explained the legal stuff, but when it comes to ethics, well, let's just say your ethics are in question. Ed Mori Troop 1 1 Peter 4:10

The only thing you have explained, Merlyn, is the legal issues. Just because something is legal doesn't make it ethical. They aren't the same. If they are to you then there's the problem! What about my private athiest club that excludes Methodists? Wanna join? Ed Mori Troop 1 1 Peter 4:10

I have no problem learning, Merlyn. You just can't explain why what the BSA did was unethical! And unethical to who? You? Me? The Kaiser? Let me ask you a question. If I was to start a private club for atheists that excluded Methodists, would you have a problem with that? Ed Mori Troop 1 1 Peter 4:10(This message has been edited by evmori)

Is a screaming chicken the same as a fricasseeing chicken?
