<quiet voice> For political reasons I no longer buy GS cookies nor BS popcorn.

We were pretty active in scouting (when I was a kid, and when SKnot was little) but the banning of 10% of the population from scouting (both parents and kids) and the scouts' refusal to allow SKnot's activities in a *Unitarian* church to count for a religion badge cut us off.

Knott, I think the GS don't have that policy.

I get GS cookies, especially thin mints, and Tom, one of my best friends at work has a daughter in GS who I can't say no to (his kids are so cuuuute), and it's so important that girls have activities/sports and all, and....

From the "Scouting for All" website:

Lord Baden Powell the founder of the world scouting movement in 1907, intended scouting to be for all youth not just some youth. In fact where scouting was founded, in England, Girls, Atheists / Freethinkers, and Gays are accepted into the program.

I can't believe they denied SKnott a badge based on being another church, that's sad and discriminatory but buy those GS cookies!!

So march right up to the table of those little pushers at the store door, don't be the one to say "oh, maybe on my way out" Do your civic duty to support the next generation of TE'ers. heck, I'd probably get the popcorn too, I think the points being made, alternatives are now out there and even individual troops are more tolerant.

Back above the line and back to the LBS, sorry for the thread hijack.

I vote for your peanut butter choco chip cookies, yum
