SUPPORT THE BOY SCOUTS
Having lost in the U.S. Supreme Court, which ruled in June 2000 that the Boy Scouts, a private organization, were within their constitutional rights to bar homosexuals as scoutmasters, homosexual activists retreated from the federal courtroom to re-deploy their forces at the state and local level.  In other words, homosexual rights activists are willing to do all they can to ostracize or even destroy the Boy Scouts unless the almost-century old organization both nullifies its pledge to be "morally straight" and abandons its central mission to teach young boys what George A. Davidson, a lawyer for the organization, described to the Supreme Court as "true manliness" - a man's responsibility in marriage and fatherhood.  Such principles may sound uproariously quaint and beyond corny to society's moral relativists, but they remain even now an anchor against civilization's drift into unfettered decadence.

SCOUTING FOR ALL HOMOSEXUAL GROUP
Scouting for All is a homosexual activist group trying to make the boy scouts conform to their view of morality.
Located in Petaluma, California,Scouting for All was formed by Scott
 Cozza after he was banned as a leader from scouting because of his
activist role in promoting homosexuals as leaders and members of the BSA.
  Steven Cozza, his 15-year old son, is an Eagle Scout and has become the
 poster child of the organization.  He has been touring the country as a
guest speaker at many homosexual activist events.  Scouting for All has 
been gathering signatures for a petition denouncing the BSA policy on
 homosexuality.    (WorldNetDaily.com)

QUOTES
 "The beauty of the United States is that
 this is a land of freedom and liberty.  If you don't like what the Boy Scouts
are doing, you have the freedom to join a different organization, or even
 form your own.  We are a nation of differences, and that is what makes us
strong.  Those who are trying to force people to believe the same as 
everyone else are themselves deceived.  Those who shout at the Boy 
Scouts of America and call them intolerant are themselves intolerant.  
No individual, no city, no state, and certainly not the federal government
 can force any private organization to believe something they do not wish
 to believe.  That is just plain wrong.  It is not what America is about."
 By David Bresnahan of WorldNetDaily.com 
 " They're just a small group with a loud voice, we are not going to change our position to mollify a small group when there are millions who have supported Scouting all along and who continue to support us"
 Jeff Reilly National BSA spokesman 
  "The Boy Scouts of America since 1910 have taught traditional family values,  We feel that an avowed homosexual isn't a role model for those values."
 
 Gregg Shields a  National BSA spokesman 
  Child sexual molestation is more than three times more common among homosexuals than among heterosexuals, according to the report, "The Proportions of Heterosexual and Homosexual Pedophiles among Sex Offenders against Children" in "The Journal of Sex and Marital Therapy," number 1 for 1992.

This page
 is to be used as talking points for 
countering the aggressive homosexual
 activists and politicians that clearly want
 to over ride our religious convictions and 
belief that homosexuality is immoral and in 
no way should be condoned or accepted by 
society as normal.  PWTL calls for tolerance 
of all peoples view points and beliefs about
 homosexuality, but not necessarily having 
to agree or change ours.  In no way does 
PWTL condone violence or ridicule towards 
homosexuals.  As people of faith we must put
 on our armor and take a stand against the 
schemes of this movement.  We must 
understand it, and be prepared so that as 
the day comes we are able to give an answer
 each and every time.
