Referring to future court cases.  LDS & scouting was tightly integrated.  I don't see how court cases can be cleanly scouting or church.  ... It feels like a future court case nightmare.  ... I'm wondering how lawyers interpret liability if in one view has bankruptcy protection and the other doesn't.  

How about is it simply "human predator based".  That is really what it is.  I has little to do with the Church/CO or BSA directly, as the people doingit are NOT representative of the CO's or BSA.  They are part of the fringe, but sadly fairly common negative elements of humanity.  Just an observation that seems obvious to me.  But, I guess some will disagree, as is their right.  

Wish there was an angry face response.  Glad they were caught. 

So, the debate then will always be ... was it church based or was it scouting based.   I can understand why they want to still be in the bankruptcy as a participating CO.

They still have some time to work out a settlement on scouting abuse.   Post 1976 scouting abuse ... Goes to bankruptcy. Pre 1976 scouting abuse ... TBD... They have 12 months to work out a settlement. Non scouting abuse... No protection
