I don't agree that the discussion over the issue of homosexuality is 
inappropriate for this newsgroup.  As Scouters in the BSA it is our duty to
examine the policies of the BSA as to their effect on Scouts, Scouters, and
the Scouting Program.  If Scouters in the BSA can not debate these policies
(yes, I realize that debate hasn't always been the case in this thread) in
an open, informal, and accepting manner, then this organization will grow
old, feeble, and eventually die.  Only by showing our courage to examine
ourselves, National's policies, and the effects on the program can we hope
to continue to provide a program that teaches Scouts to grow into the best
person possible.  And, in this manner, we can keep the organization young,
vibrant, and attractive to Scouts.
