Currently they discriminate against non-Christians and against gays. Is that their right? Is it their right to discriminate against, oh, whites, for instance?

What if they didn't allow boys?

The Boy Scouts are allowed to define certain criteria that must be met in order for someone to join. That isn't wrong, it's a private organization, so they have the right to do that. There was a Supreme Court case in which that was decided. Being African American is something you can't help, bc it's genetic. However, your religious belief or your sexual behavior is something you can prevent and control, so they can discriminate against that.
However, they do separate the sexes, I think this gives young boys a chance to learn with other boys and this can keep them focused.

Yeah, just like an all black college can discriminate against whites. Whats the difference?

The cub scouts were recruiting my little boy at a festival in my town.
We chatted a while and she asked me if I'd like to sign up. I said, "No, sorry. We're atheists and they disallow that." I was very nice and smiled. She acted like I just threw shitte in her face - gave my little boy a dirty look and turned her back. I hung around a while just to annoy the old cow.

They do not discriminate against non christians at all..........you are telling a big one there
Being white is not a sin
Being gay is a sin and against traditional family values
You have a warped sense of morals

Nope. They are dead wrong. Unless you are breaking the law then you are a citizen with full and equal rights. The boy scouts organization has shown itself to be a bunch of bigots.

a real feminist can assist you equality between females and men, even whilst that equality isn't useful. A "neo-feminist," even nonetheless, in simple terms has a hatred for men. those females at the instant are not actual feminists.

FYI: I was an Eagle Scout, and I'm not a Christian. You don't have to be a Christian to be a Boy Scout.
