Whether the Boy Scouts are adhering to Christian principles or not is irrelevant – as is the debate on Christianity and homosexuality as well. The point is that a voluntary private organization should be allowed to organize its membership around whatever principles it wishes, even foolish ones, as long as they don’t force their views on the unwilling. Society should jealously guard the rights of groups to congregate around whatever principles they hold dear, no matter if others don’t like those same principles. After all, Baptist Churches do not have to give due time to Judaism, the NAACP advocates for ‘colored people’ only and NOW doesn’t have to accept as members beer swilling, billy bob, NASCAR drivers. If the Scouts don’t want to admit gays, so be it, and don’t join. It’s their loss, and honestly, when social groups start to go outside of society’s mainstream norms, their membership begins to dwindle naturally, anyway (which is already happening to the Scouts.)
