Scouts BSA immoral

(Orlando, FL) The World Organization of the Scout Movement (WOSM) released its health and safety guidelines for the World Jamboree to be held at the Summit Bechtel Reserve in West Virginia July 22 through August 2, 2019.

The guidelines require that host organizations, who in this case include the former Boy Scouts of America (now Scouts BSA),


“… ensure that condoms are readily and easily accessible for all participants and IST [staff] at a number of locations on the site. Heads of Contingent must be informed in advance and made aware of their responsibility in communicating this policy to their Participants, Unit Leaders, Contingent Staff, and IST in an appropriate way.” (See Guideline 7.3 on page 10 of the document.)

Stunningly, the World Jamboree Guideline 7.3 also has “exceptions,” allowances and instructions for the consumption of alcohol in “confined areas” at the 12-day camping event. (It appears the Jamboree guidelines were drafted after the 2015 World Jamboree in Japan in preparation for the 2019 event and were just recently released in an email.)

The 2019 World Jamboree will be hosted by three national Scout organizations: Scouts Canada, Asociación de Scouts de México, and the Boy Scouts of America (now Scouts BSA). The theme for the 24th Jamboree will be to “Unlock a New World” and promotional materials claim the event will be “a celebration of cultural exchange, mutual understanding, peace, and friendship.”

This announcement comes on the heels of the BSA changing its membership policy earlier this month to allow girls to fully participate in local Boy Scout Troop programs and their official name change to remove the word “boy” to transform into the new genderless “Scouts BSA.”

The change to allow girls into the BSA provoked a blistering response from the national Girl Scouts of America organization last year when they issued the following statement:


“The Boy Scouts’ house is on fire. Instead of addressing systemic issues of continuing sexual assault, financial mismanagement and deficient programming, BSA’s senior management wants to add an accelerant to the house fire by recruiting girls.”

Florida Family Policy Council President John Stemberger, who also serves as Chairman of the Board for the Christian scouting movement Trail Life USA issued the following statement:


“In light of the mandatory condom policy, it is not clear how far down the rabbit hole the Boy Scouts will continue to fall. With the addition of condoms and alcohol, the World Jamboree is starting to sound more like a 1960s Woodstock festival rather than a campout that parents would want to send their children to! All of this should be deeply disturbing to the churches that are chartering Boy Scout Troops. These policies present a clear youth protection problem that the BSA absolutely refuses to recognize. The fact that they are requiring that condoms be ‘readily accessible’ and are communicating this to everyone– including youth participants–shows that the BSA is both anticipating and facilitating sexual conduct between minors at this event. These policies are both outrageous and completely irresponsible.”
More than 160 national scout organizations representing more than 200 nations and territories are expected to participate in this massive West Virginia 12-day camping event, which based on recent membership policy changes should include openly-gay boys, openly-gay adult scout leaders, transgendered boys and adults and now also girls.

Re: Scouts BSA immoral

I hate the ruination of what was such a good organization.
It's a shame and disgrace that there are perverted minds
trying their best to mess up everything that is good.

I hope that the majority of good parents will not agree nor
let their children be subject to such things as this!

Re: Scouts BSA immoral

I did not know Pentecostals were involved with the BSA. But then again, I sometimes think I live under a rock.

We had a Scout troop many years ago at the POA however I have lost track as to how active it was.

I learned about the policy here yesterday

We had Cub Scouts and Boy Scouts in the church my father pastored for a while.

I was still a Cub Scout, but my father liked to tell a story about how the Boy Scouts were meeting in a room just off the gymnasium in the church, discussing what they would do if confronted by an armed robber. A couple of the guys said they would take action to disarm him. Unknown to them, the scout master had a friend from work who was a biker waiting just outside the room. He had a pellet gun that looked like a real pistol. Dude looked like a guy you wouldn't want to meet in an alley. He burst into the room, yelling for everyone to get on the floor. The tough guys who, minutes before, were talking of how they'd fight and subdue an armed robber were the first on the floor. One other guy had an accident in his pants.

Had fun in Cub Scouts and Webelos. Went camping. Made the Pinewood Derby cars to race. I don't know why the church stopped doing scouting, but it stopped before I made it into the Boy Scouts.

It's really sad, but not surprising honestly, to see what how bad the BSA has become.
