Why Doesn Scouting For All form their own outdoor youth group?
– There are other outdoor youth programs that don’t discriminate such as the Camp Fire Boys and Girls Club, 4H and Girl Scouts. In fact the Boy Scouts of America is the only youth organization in America that is not a religious organization that discriminates against gay youth and adults, atheists for their belief, and girls because of their gender. Keep in mind that 2/3s of Scouting globally include girls in their scouting programs. The Boy Scouts of America is one of 49 countries out of 152 who excludes girls from scouting. Also, if we walked away from the BSA’s discriminatory policies by starting our own organization we would be turning our backs on the issue of the social injustice by the BSA toward gays, atheists and girls. We would be doing nothing to help end the BSA’s practice of discrimination.
