DC this is not about my personal comfort. Or a fear that scouts within my troop will be at a disadvantage. We are a nondenominational mostly agnostic troop. with some multi faith in there, mostly Christian, islamc and Buddist. My fear is that some will use this new requirement as an evangelical green light for conversion. and that this will be abused to ostracize scouts that are in a minority faith than the rest of their troop. I am not complacent enough to just STFU and just follow along with this without thought or comment.

And I concor with stosh on his points as well

I cant say if they handled it correctly or not. maybe the best they could do with a bad situation. I would say something about how you perceive the election: My son has been in scouting since tigers AOL. Made first class after 14 calender months in the troop. First year at camp he earned 3 eagle required and wilderness survival. Second year (July 2014) he took wilderness survival because he thought it was a blast and didnt care he was only going to earn 3 merit badges out of a possible 6. So here we are a small 12 yo with some maturity issues. also a geek dungeons and dragons

Stosh, your alliteration to the artist that does not show his work failed. then you shifted to character. DeVinci had to hide his work for being against the Church, as did Galileo both labeled as hereticsI assume that since where heretics they had faulty character. Can we for certain ensure that NO scout will be denied rank due to this question and that scouts differences of faith with the SM and or troop in general? Another question how does this make the program better?

Ohhh no 2 post where i totally agree with Stosh

There are several Cub Scout victorinox knives plus gerbers compact scout. The purpose is to teach knife safety. You are teaching future boy scouts. Not future wood carvers

The OP is concerned about this enough to make them think about it. Do nothing isn't an option at this point. I don't think you can see a wrong and just say not my problem you should at least call the council and express your concern.

So I guess it's me alone thinking that this is a mistake and will ostrify scouts and the rest are fully on board. -

Why do I think that those you are not opposed to this and see it as not a big deal are not in a religious minority? Therefore not a problem for them. Will agnostic scouts be denied rank? This is a terrible idea. Again what problem does this solve? -
