I wonder what GA's would think of our youth

if they could witness LDS troops as summer camp.

Here is what I posted on CB:

Ways to identify a LDS troop at summer camp Ignore MikeWaters

1. A group of scouts in line at the mess hall, with no scout pants or shorts, all with scout shirts completely unbuttoned.

2. Look for the troop with the oldest boys, often evincing an expression that indicates supreme disinterest.

3. Orange epaulets.

4. A member of a troop says the phrase "strength and nourishment" during the mic'ed mess hall prayer.

5. Look for either the most stressed out, or the most laissez-faire adult leaders. Both will be LDS.

6. A group of boys who make sneering remarks and in general show disrespect for scouting traditions and institutions.

LDS troops may be the least respectful, least courteous.....what does that say about us, if anything?

I have serious misgivings about attaching any LDS emblem to my troop, or any other LDS troop I have seen, for fear of damaging the church.
