Dear sirs,
	I would like to ask a very simple question.  Where in the scout oath 
or law does it state that "A Scout is strait."?
Where in any of scoutings basic principles does it imply that a scout
may not be a homosexual?
I myself am not a Homosexual and have no desire to engage in homosexual
practices.  On the other hand I have met several Homosexuals, both male 
and female, and it was not until I was told that they were homosexuals 
that I had any Idea.
Just because a person is a Homosexual does not mean they are evil or out
to convert the world.
If a gentleman is a gifted leader and the best scoutmaster you have ever
seen. How does the fact that he is Gay change his Ability's?
Does he stop being a good leader? Does he no longer teach scouting principles?
Many of you may argue that if they are gay they will Molest their scouts.
This is just plain stupid...
I have met people who are perfectly straight, and still molest scouts.

I would chalenge any of you shortsited narrowminded idiots who feel that 
I am wrong to respond with PROOF. Not speculations feelings or ideas, PROOF.

Yours in Scouting
