You may recall the controversy
surrounding the Boy Scouts of America
(BSA) in the summer of 2013. [I wrote several blogs in reference to it –
April 15, June 5, June 7, and July 12.] The
BSA wrestled with its membership
policy due to constant pressure from the militant homosexual movement.
Well, last year the BSA foolishly decided to allow openly homosexual
boys to be part of its program. At the
time they wisely maintained the prohibition on homosexual adults serving as leaders
and counselors.
Just as I had ‘prophesied,’ the BSA's compromise is not good enough for
the corporate ‘tolerance’ autocratic heads. The Disney
Corporation has announced that it will no longer support local Boy Scout
troops. A spokesman for the Human Rights Campaign, the nation's
largest homosexual rights lobbying group, applauded Disney's decision, saying, “When you think about brands that
exemplify childhood, you think of Disney,
and with them dissociating with BSA,
it speaks volumes of where we are with the views we want to send to young
people.”
Last year, I disassociated myself with
today’s BSA … removing my
long-wearing Eagle Scout ring … for their decision. Now I find the need to let Disney Corporation know that I will not
contribute to their coffers … that I am “dissociating” with them [Disney]; not that I agree with today’s BSA, but that a for-profit corporation
would withhold its support to local Boy Scouts as a social statement to push a
cultural agenda on a non-profit, private organization [BSA] is corporately irresponsible.
I encourage every God-fearing person
who believes homosexuality to be incompatible with Holy Scripture to “speak
volumes” to such profit-making corporations … who blatantly choose to align
themselves with the homosexual movement … that they aren’t going to get your
money. Let those who ignore God’s
prophets, feel it in their profits!
