Moose, yup. So once again: if the BSA doesn't wish for controversy, then the BSA shouldn't have such controversial policies. Til that time when the BSA recognizes this simple fact, the BSA will continue to reap what it has sown.

The fact that the Boys Scouts has an award, the Dr. Sally Ride Supernova Award, that honors a celebrated astronaut and scientist who happens to be a lesbian does not surprise me. Given the fact the the scouting program was founded by a man who enjoyed watching young men swim naked, expressed disdain for seeing female nudity, admitted that he could not judge a woman's physical beauty and shared accommodations with a younger man for over 40 years, I'm not shocked.

 

Looking back on a life of over eighty years, I realize how short life is and how little worth while are anger and political warfare. - Baden-Powell.
