Scouting for Boys?
I will probably
be stepping on some toes and glistening (GLSEN- Gay Lesbian Straight Education
Network) perspectives with this letter but enough is enough and something needs
to be said on behalf of a time honored and respected organization called the
Boy Scouts of America which does not currently promote homosexuality. They are the most recent target of
‘progressives’ as demonstrated by a 1.4 million signature petition and a pre-super
bowl admonition with the progressive poster child, President Obama.
Obama pops out of
the closet again as he states, “My attitude is that gay and lesbians should
have access and opportunity the same way everyone else does in every
institution and walk of life.” Wow! I wish he would have said that during his
2008 pre-election debate with Senator John McCain at Rick Warren’s Saddle Back
Church! And that he believed marriage was
not between a man and a women but should be redefined to include homosexuals. Come on now, is it really the president’s job
to preach the rainbow message during super bowl when the jobless rate just went
up, the economy just contracted, and we are quickly approaching a 17 trillion
dollar debt? No….but what a cleverly
timed distraction, a quarterback sneak!
I am sick and
tired of individuals and groups using discrimination and inequality as a battle
cry to smear and bring down individuals that don’t agree with them or time
tested and respected institutions with some moral backbone. Recently a business owner of a cake shop in
Oregon refused to bake a wedding cake for a lesbian couple and now he finds
himself embroiled in legal battles. The
Boy Scouts of America refuse to promote homosexuality and now they are in the
cross hairs of a petition and a tongue lashing by the president of the United
States. Question: What about our rights as an American or an
American institution to stand up for what we believe in? This is America! Let those folks start their own business and
bake their own cakes! Let them start
their own Rain-Boy Scouts!
Well, the moral
degradation of a society does not work that way. First it is this, then it is that, and then
it will be something else. It is called
compromise for desire. Remember
Rome? I see the redistribution of values
and morals as America is “fundamentally transformed”. The decay is evident when you turn on the
TV, go to a movie, read the newspaper,
or talk with your neighbor. What can be
done? Well, a starting point is getting
out to vote for the 33 Senate seats and 435 House seats in 2014 and let your
petitions and voice be heard!
