Boy Scouts Of America Forgets Values, Follows the Money

Boy Scouts of America (BSA) used to be a traditional organization grounded on religious virtues, where the group’s oath spoke of a “duty to God.” But, it seems as though the organization has decided corporation donations are more important than its former values.

“For more than 100 years, the Boy Scouts of America, along with schools, youth sports and other youth organizations, have ultimately deferred to the information on an individual’s birth certificate to determine eligibility for our single-gender programs,” according to the former statement by BSA.

This is no longer the case. Instead, the organization is giving into the secular left’s transgender movement.

“However, that approach is no longer sufficient as communities and state laws are interpreting gender identity differently, and these laws vary widely from state to state. Starting today, we will accept and register youth in the Cub and Boy Scout programs based on the gender identity indicated on the application,” said the BSA in a recent statement.

Liberal media has rejoiced over the organization’s quick and hasty decision.

“The Scouts’ relatively quick and decisive move on the transgender issue came more easily and quickly than previous reforms. The Boy Scouts appear to have decided to rely on the goodwill of their participants to accept the decision with the maturity the organization preaches to Scouts,” writes The Washington Post.

The New York Times has also applauded the BSA’s move to embrace transgenderism and has said the organization will be leading the way with it’s “acceptance.”

“The Boy Scouts are recognizing transgender boys for what they genuinely are: boys. This extends the organization’s values and programs to a wider pool. It also may help a new generation of Americans think more rationally and compassionately about gender identity,” writes The New York Times.

The organization knows where their support’s sympathies lie, so they are throwing their values out of the window.

But, this is a major issue for multiple reasons. One, man can’t overrule God. Every person was born their sex for a reason. Not to mention, those who undergo gender reassignment surgery sterilize and destroy perfectly healthy reproductive organs. This can’t be undone.

Then 41% of those who go through this “transformation,” subsequently attempt suicide and a high percentage of transgenders regret the change after the procedure.

Probably the most powerful argument against the transgender movement is that there is no scientific evidence proving that a man or woman could be born with the wrong sexed brain. Being transgender isn’t a condition.

Also, why should parents allow their children who are the age of going to BSA to make such a life-changing decision at such a young age. This is a form of child abuse. So that just means BSA is condoning that.

Editor’s note: We have written about this before. Children who have not reached puberty have no feelings of gay or straight, they are strictly a product of their environment. To push them to pretend to be transgender is child abuse.
