Boy Scouts succumbs completely to LGBT ideology
The Boy Scouts of America is changing its 114-year-old name, according to a statement from the tech sector CEO who runs the fabled organization, in what seems to be a bid to deny the reality that boys are different from girls.My father was a Boy Scout member for a few years during his childhood, and this makes a total humiliation of what was once considered an admirable way to spend one's youth. The Girls Scouts are faring no better:
The new sexually-neutral name –“Scouting America” — will send “a really strong message to everyone in America that they can come to this program, they can bring their authentic self,” said Roger Krone, the organization’s president and CEO.
Krone’s “authentic self” phrase matches language used by transgender activists who oppose the public recognition that boys and girls, women and men, have different needs and desires. The pro-transgender activists insist that young children can create their individual sexual persona and “gender,” regardless of their male or female nature.
“They can be who they are, and they will be welcomed here,” added Krone, who until recently was the chief of Leidos, a consulting company in defense and healthcare. The scouting organization’s National Executive Board also includes other business leaders. [...]
Krone doubled down on the ideological claim that there are no significant differences — often described as “gender differences” — between the two complementary and cooperating sexes.
“Though our name will be new, our mission remains unchanged: we are committed to teaching young people to be Prepared. For Life,” Krone said in a statement. “This will be a simple but very important evolution as we seek to ensure that everyone feels welcome in Scouting.”
Although Scouting America is intentionally branding itself as an organization for all youth, Girl Scouts of the USA maintains that although its organization is aimed at girls, it allows transgender youth to participate.I can't remember just now whether my mother participated in the Girl Scouts in her youth, but this an equal humiliation of what was once a great place for girls to spend time too.
One must wonder if any services chartered to Muslim movements in past years will be exempt from this woke atrocity by contrast, recalling the Boy Scouts for some provided such services to the Religion of Peace, and the Girl Scouts likely did too. If Muslims working for the Scouts will not have to follow such embarrassments, that'll only compound how LGBT ideology is only meant to damage civilized societies, or destroy them altogether. Who knows how many sexual abuse cases will turn up down the road from here, among other terrible incidents that do more harm than good for children? Let's hope more American citizens turn away from both Scout movements after this.
