I guess mothers are assholes for putting their daughters in all girl activities?

Why is it ok for a mother to keep her daughter away from boys who may make a move on her, but when a parent wishes to keep their son away from gay boys, the parent is a bigot?

Looks like a double standard to me.

What about same sex schools that are supposed to be free from sexual pressure? Are those organizations bigots?

Parents put their children in same sex organizations for a reason. One of those reasons is to stay away from sexual pressure and temptation.

All girl and all boy activities have many aspects to them, only one of which is a (presumed) lack of sexual attraction. Excluding gay children here has only one aspect.

Yes, if you are preventing your child from interacting with other children because you are afraid that someone someday might be attracted to them you are being a bad parent to your child.

There are some recent studies that show girls make better grades in all girls schools.

When you remove the sexual temptations young adults focus better.

I dont make the news, I just report it here.




Politicians pretend to care about civil rights just to win minority voters. The truth is, politicians could not care less about your civil rights.

Politicians do not care about your rights. All they want are your votes. If they have to lock you away in a detainment camp or kill you with a drone strike they will.

FTFY

So what's your bait in this thread? More gay bashing or democrat bashing? Your trolling in the Rick Perry thread was reported, how many pages until you're reported again?

As far as your news that you're reporting? It was already pointed out that the rank and file (read fundamentalist BSA sponsors and participants) need to get over themselves. Boy Scouts is a great avenue for teaching boys life skills and responsibility; no matter the sexual orientation of the boys.

Once again, religious extremists want to interject their private faith into the public sphere. When will they learn to keep their faith to themselves?

christ dude. news flash GIRLS CAN BE GAY TOO!!!

Yeah, TH has previously acknowledged his love of lesbian sex and/or porn. Maybe he's now being more truthful and saying that he likes preteen lesbian sex.

I was falsely accused of trolling because people like you jump to conclusions.

Show me where religion has been brought up. As far as I know you are the first person to mention religio, and I would appreciate it if you would leave that topic out of this thread.

I had my kid in the cub scouts for one year. By mutual decision we pulled him.

Basically the scouts seem to have cornered the market for fat kids and dweebs. None of the cool people put their kids into it. Gawd, I was embarassed to be seen with them.

Perhaps responsible adults have decided that enough is enough and put their children into more healthy organizations (like I did).




There is something seriously screwed up about a fat kid.

:biggrin: You're a friggin idiot.

And the puppies are doing just fine, thank you. The black one likes to be held and petted, while the black/brown one likes rough play.

Kids should be able to be in an organization without sexual pressure. Taking a child out of an organization that allows gays is no different than a parent taking their daughter out of an organization that allows boys.

When sexual attraction is allowed, then the kids get distracted.

Um I never asked for permission to be sexually attracted. You may not realize this but for most humans it is a purely instinctual response. For asexual people such as yourself, perhaps the idea of being "allowed" to be sexually attracted makes sense.

Mommy, is it ok if my pee-pee gets hard when I look at auntie Rachel milking a cow? ROFLMFAO!!!!!

Sorry, poor choice of words. But you get the point.

If the scouts allow gays, they might as well allow girl scouts in with the boys, and boys in with the girls.

The attraction is there, along with the flirting and everything else.

Isn't the point of having boys and girls separate is so each group can focus on learning, rather than focusing on the opposite sex?

Please provide proof that any of your ignorance/stupidity/trolling exists.

Based on your retarded logic, this could happen at school, a restaurant, etc... Don't take your kids anywhere is your logic b/c gays are sexual perverts at all times. Fuck off you ignorant fuck.

Just for the record the BSA has become more irrelevant with each passing year. Their membership has dropped just about EACH and EVERY year since 1986.

In 1986, there were 4 million scouts. In 2012 there were 2.6 million scouts. In another decade or two I would expect their numbers to fall below 1 million.

No, because those are not supposed to be selective private organizations.

You send your daughter to a private all girls school. Then the girls school started allowing boys.

You draw your daughter out you are a bigot.

You leave her in you violent one of the reasons why you sent her to an all girls school.

So which is it?

Democrats pretend to care about civil rights just to win minority voters. The truth is, democrats could not care less about your civil rights.

Democrats want to do something, issue a formal apology for voting against freeing the slaves, and issue a formal apology for the detainment of Japanese-Americans during world war II.

Then, obama needs to apologize for killing US citizens without due process.

Democrats do not care about your rights. All they want are your votes. If they have to lock you away in a detainment camp or kill you with a drone strike they will.

The whole GOP platform is xenophobia and hate. Hate of minorities, gays, other countries, other religions, etc. All the democrats have to do is be neutral and they'd still be ahead.

Actually your post in the Perry thread was judged by an admin to be a troll post.
The state is not responsible for you.

If that was the fact we would not have poverty or homeless.




You dont even understand what happened in this thread. This is a classic bait and switch.

First I baited the evolutionary zealots, then presented my real debate.

I never said in this thread I did not believe in evolution. The zealots "assumed" I did not. then when they realized they were baited they got pissed off.

Suckers.




Let the butt hurt flow through you.

Well, if you're going to admit to trolling, I'll oblige you with the infraction for it. -Admin DrPizza

Pretty cut and dried I'd say.

So you're saying that religious faith has nothing to do with some peoples objection to gay individuals being in scouting?

How about the fact that boy scouts just aren't relevant anymore? Kids really have no interest and I bet not as many are signing up anymore...

Cub scouts was cool, boy scouts was boring as hell and I dropped out 1 yr in.

This is what happens when you cater to a minority group rather than the majority who pay the bills.
Boy scouts allow gays.
People leave for a group who supports traditional values

Oh you and your wacky websites

I guess you didn't like it when they catered to the black minority groups to get into the BSA either? They even tried black only scout packs. Would Gay Only packs be ok with you?

My traditional values don't include bigotry for sexual preference. How many generations will have to fade away before we get rid of bigotry?

Please do not put words or anything else in my mouth.

You keep compairing apples and oranges in your arguement. A more apt compairson would be that the all girl school now allows openly gay girls, aka, lesbians. Which, news flash, are already in all girls schools! Shocker i know. Now if the school your daughter was in had an anti gay policy and suddenly adopted a pro gay stance and that change in policies made you take your daughter out, then yes. You are a bigot.

Wow aren't you the super parent. Hide him from real people in the world and being embarrassed by "dweebs" and fat children. I don't know why I thought you were a reasonable poster.

If I was your kid I would make sure all my friends where fat and dweebs just to piss you off.

Why do you hate liberty?

Actually I love liberty and it would be my guess that all citizens, religious or not love liberty as well. But it seems that some religious citizens can't keep from flaunting and pushing their faith into the public sphere.

I'm pretty sure that one of the apostles admonished Christians from praying and or flaunting their faith in public?
