One more thing: There are a wide variety of belief systems represented in the churches that sponsor BSA troops. Unitarians, for example, are pretty liberal. Many of these churches are quite permissive with respect to premarital sex, unwed couples living together, etc. And many scout troops are sponsored by non-religious entities. The BSA never stepped in and made exclusions based on these cases. But, by golly, let's not let any queers into the system.
