[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was a scout but dropped out because I disagreed with the organization's values (read: discrimination). I would not let my kid join on principle. It has a racist and bigoted history. It also pushes religion, and I am not religious. It is basically a lite version of a Mormon youth group.[/quote] For those of use who stuck with it and worked to change the romanization from with in, I am sorry that you still feel this way. The core of the scout experience is not discrimination and like all the institutions our country the arc of history is bent toward justice. We are UU and there are many UUs active in scouting and about 1/3 of the boys in our Congregation end up making Eagle. Change from within works. [/quote]
