The Rural Blog: Wife’s humor column in rural Kentucky newspaper could cost pastor his job
 
A humor column in a Kentucky newspaper that made fun of the Southern Baptist Convention’s opposition to the Boy Scouts of America decision to admit gay members, even referring to the convention as “Shiite Baptists,” could cost the writer’s husband his job as an associate pastor and minister of music at First Baptist Church of Madisonville, an SBC congregation, Savannah Oglesby reports for The Messenger of Madisonville.

Angela Thomas, a regular columnist for the daily paper, wrote: “Some might assume that because the Boy Scouts have addressed the issue, it must mean that Scout packs are filled with 10-year-old boys insisting on wearing their Scout caps at a rakish tilt and over-accessorizing their uniforms. … Sexuality doesn’t come up and isn’t relative to typical Scouting activities but now, thanks to Southern Baptists, the parents of little innocent Scouts everywhere are having to have The Talk. The Boy Scouts of America has been forced to confront this issue and cannot hide behind the freedom granted to religious organizations like the Southern Baptist Convention to condemn certain behaviors they deem unacceptable and excluded people based on their interpretation of the Bible.”

Gimme that old time religion…..  (http://www.kyforward.com/2013/07/the-rural-blog-wifes-humor-column-in-rural-kentucky-newspaper-could-cost-pastor-his-job/)

Why can't our youth enjoy their innocence until the appropriate age (past puberty) ?

That would be nice, wouldn't it?  It seems to be far harder for Scouts now, though...

The only reason the Scouts have to have The Talk is because of all the screaming deviants.

Children are nothing but pawns to those pushing the leftist agenda.  Their favorite reasoning for anything and everything: "Think of the children".  Unfortunately that is exactly what the perverts are doing.

The lib leaders want their constituents like NAMBLA to think of the children. By definition that's aiding and abetting.
