"Utah Boy Scouts council wants more time on gays decision"
Quote:
But the Scouts’ Great Salt Lake Council wants more time to "consider the consequences," as the council puts it in a statement on their website, of changing the policy.
"We believe that any decision that strikes at the core of our 103-year history merits full input from all stakeholders in deliberation and discussion," the council states. The group also mentions that the issue has been a source of "emotional distress" with many of the council’s leaders.
It’s a move that could have a dramatic impact on the group’s century-old relationship with its top sponsor: the Utah-based LDS Church.

Translation: they see that the writing is on the wall, and the only hope to reverse this is a delay that might somehow turn the tide in ways unknown from source unknown.
