This morning I found out that Bill Birch died. I went to Youtube and watched his video on his bolo ties. Then I saw a link for a video by Penn and Teller on the BSA. WOW. I am not going to share the link because the language is very salty...............and that is an understatement. While I appreciate that Penn and Teller have a different view on the BSA, the attack on the Mormon Church for supporting the BSA was over the top. So I will try to remember that a Scout is kind and not just not comment.
You know I am a huge supporter of the LDS Church as one of its members. I am also a huge supporter of the BSA as one of its leaders. I am also a huge critic of the way chosen leader of the LDS Church use/don't use the BSA programs in their units. The filthy way Penn and Teller present the ideas of the LDS Church and the Boy Scouts of America is ridiculous. I couldn't afford your tickets in Vegas and now it doesn't even matter if I won the lottery and could. Enough said.
The ramblings of an ex BSA Varsity Team Coach on Scouting and specifically the Varsity program. My thoughts, ideas and concerns are in no way connected or shared in any form or fashion by the Boy Scouts of America or The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church) who volutold me to serve as a Varsity Coach. Some personal rambling too........... (I am an Assistant Scoutmaster now that the Varsity Program has been murdered........)
