D. <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/William_D._Boyce\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Boyce<\/a>, having evolved from the organization in <a href=\"http:\/\/usscouts.org\/aboutbsa\/bsafound.asp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">England<\/a>. For decades this organization was a treasured representation of America, often <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/History_of_the_Boy_Scouts_of_America\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">attached<\/a> to different religious organizations, building character and integrity in boys. However, over time it has evolved into a neutered group of kids just being taught a Godless altered ideology. Not surprisingly, many of these changes occurred following the adoption of Agenda <a href=\"https:\/\/sustainabledevelopment.un.org\/outcomedocuments\/agenda21\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">21<\/a> by George H.W. <a href=\"https:\/\/web.archive.org\/web\/20140118003148\/https:\/www.presidency.ucsb.edu\/ws?pid=21079\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Bush<\/a> in 1992.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Joining in <a href=\"https:\/\/en.scoutwiki.org\/List_of_World_Organization_of_the_Scout_Movement_members#United_States\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">1922<\/a>, the Boy Scouts of America became a member of the World Organization of the Scout Movement (<a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/World_Organization_of_the_Scout_Movement\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">WOSM<\/a>). The Boy Scouts of the United Nations was <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Boy_Scouts_of_the_United_Nations\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">created<\/a> in 1945 for UN diplomats and staff. By 1947, the United Nations (UN) got its hands on the Boy Scouts through WOSM, being <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scout.org\/who-we-are\/scout-movement\/scoutings-history\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">granted<\/a> UN non-government organization (NGO) <a href=\"https:\/\/learn.scout.org\/resource\/scouting-and-united-nations-relations-partnerships-and-initiatives\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">status<\/a>, and continues to work with the UN today. There are a bunch of other world groups, the International <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scouting.org\/international\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Department<\/a>, World Scout <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scout.org\/who-we-are\/world-organization-scout-movement\/world-scout\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Bureau<\/a>, and World Scout <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scout.org\/who-we-are\/world-organization-scout-movement\/world-committee\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Committee<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Boy Scout <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scouterlife.com\/blog\/2012\/04\/boy-scout-badge.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">badge<\/a> reflects Duty to God and Country, Duty to Others, and Duty to Self with symbols of American freedom. There is also A World Crest <a href=\"http:\/\/scoutinsignia.com\/crest.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Emblem<\/a> that all Boy Scouts of America wear &#8220;as a symbol of unity and world brotherhood.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Changes in the Boy Scouts began in <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Catherine_Pollard_(Scouting)\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">1973<\/a> with the first attempt to have female scout leaders, resulting in a drop in membership. In was also in the 1970&#8217;s that other <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/History_of_the_Boy_Scouts_of_America\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">changes<\/a> were made to the program with removal of several outdoor badges and a de-emphasis of the term boy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 1992, the organization was sued for discrimination, with the U.S. Supreme Court <a href=\"https:\/\/supreme.justia.com\/cases\/federal\/us\/530\/640\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">ruling<\/a> in 2000 that as a private organization it held the &#8220;First Amendment right to freedom of &#8220;expressive <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Freedom_of_association\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">association<\/a>&#8220;, meaning an association&#8217;s right to accept or decline membership based on certain criteria. By <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/47bac00392fb4ba7a89d06946607bf34\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">2013<\/a> the decision was made to open the doors to all males.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This discrimination dispute was <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/c4795353c1904ca1ab56691cb0a356e6\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">ended<\/a> by the BSA National Executive <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scoutingnewsroom.org\/press-releases\/boy-scouts-of-america-elects-new-national-executive-board\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Board<\/a> in <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/c4795353c1904ca1ab56691cb0a356e6\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">2015<\/a>. Then in in <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/general-news-5d6495921542401ab2e7b4bb7a4c182c\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">2017<\/a> the decision was made to open the doors to any individual regardless of biological sex, and also expanding to <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/7f690adec7ad45d2a9469baac8e90ac7\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">girls<\/a>. By acknowledging this was no longer an organization for boys, the term boy was removed and the name was <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nbcdfw.com\/news\/national-international\/boy-scouts-name-change-scouts-bsa\/2062870\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">changed<\/a> to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.npr.org\/sections\/thetwo-way\/2018\/05\/02\/607678097\/boy-scouts-changing-name-to-scouts-bsa-as-girls-welcomed-into-program\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Scouts<\/a> BSA in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.weforum.org\/agenda\/2018\/05\/the-boy-scouts-arent-the-boy-scouts-anymore\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">2019<\/a>. It should be no surprise that claims of sexual abuse were <a href=\"https:\/\/www.npr.org\/2020\/11\/13\/933924470\/boy-scouts-of-america-sexual-abuse-victims-seek-justice-in-bankruptcy-court\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">rampant<\/a> by 2020, resulting in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.npr.org\/2020\/02\/18\/806721827\/boy-scouts-of-america-files-for-bankruptcy-as-it-faces-hundreds-of-sex-abuse-cla\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">bankruptcy<\/a> of the <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/boy-scouts-bankruptcy-child-sexual-abuse-f6359f826b98d471c290598573ebc5da\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">organization<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All of this destruction of what was once a remarkable organization has led to a complete stripping of its founding principles by now changing the name to &#8220;Scouting <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/boy-scouts-new-name-scouting-america-c5d16661ba18166425e0aa2c6cb980de\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">America<\/a>&#8220;, a &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/hub\/boy-scouts-of-america\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">rebranding<\/a>&#8221; that will go into effective in February, 2025, so there is still time to escape. This change was due to &#8220;low membership numbers&#8221; which the reason seems to escape understanding by those who caused the problem. It has not been the Boy Scouts for a very long time, it is a kids club, overtaken by UN ideology. Even the World Economic Forum <a href=\"https:\/\/www.weforum.org\/agenda\/2018\/05\/the-boy-scouts-arent-the-boy-scouts-anymore\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">recognizes<\/a> this. For now, there is still a Boy Scouts of America <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scouting.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">website<\/a>, and does <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scoutingnewsroom.org\/press-releases\/boy-scouts-of-america-to-become-scouting-america\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">reference<\/a> the future name change as a &#8220;foremost youth program of character development and values-based leadership training&#8221;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All of this has actually been symbolic neutering just as being done <a href=\"https:\/\/www.healthline.com\/health\/transgender\/gender-confirmation-surgery#things-to-consider\">physically<\/a> with children.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Not that it hasn&#8217;t been <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scout.org\/news\/news\/youth-engagement-partnerships-who\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">occurring<\/a> already, the National Scout <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scout.org\/national-scout-organizations\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Organizations<\/a> have big <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scout.org\/news\/4th-world-scout-education-congress\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">plans<\/a> to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=IgWZkrA_c9s\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">educate<\/a> scouts on the Sustainable Development Goals (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.scout.org\/what-we-do\/global-action\/scouts-sdgs\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">SDG<\/a>). Scout activities used to be practiced through attachments to religious organizations but now that role has been removed and replaced with UN institutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Scouting <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scouting.org\/skills\/merit-badges\/all\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">badges<\/a> also reflect this <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scout.org\/news\/world-scouting-unep-renew-climate-commitment\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">indoctrination<\/a>. No longer is there an American <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scouting.org\/merit-badges\/american-cultures\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">culture<\/a>, instead being divided into different classes and groups, or really the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scouting.org\/merit-badges\/american-heritage\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">heritage<\/a> of the Constitution and the men who not only created it but also fought for it. There is also the Citizenship badges in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scouting.org\/merit-badges\/citizenship-in-society\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Society<\/a>, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scouting.org\/merit-badges\/citizenship-in-the-community\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Community<\/a>, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scouting.org\/merit-badges\/citizenship-in-the-nation\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Nation<\/a> (which barely covers the Constitution), and in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scouting.org\/merit-badges\/citizenship-in-the-world\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">World<\/a> with <a href=\"https:\/\/filestore.scouting.org\/filestore\/Merit_Badge_ReqandRes\/Citizenship_in_the_World.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">devotion<\/a> to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scout.org\/news\/how-scouting-empowered-me-become-un-youth-delegate\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">UN<\/a>, along with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scouting.org\/merit-badges\/sustainability\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Sustainability<\/a>, all required to reach Eagle Scout <a href=\"http:\/\/www.scoutingbsa.org\/Programs\/BoyScouts\/badges_rank\/Eagle_Process.html\">rank<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Clearly, this action is an advancement of Agenda 21 Chapter <a href=\"http:\/\/information-habitat.net\/agenda21\/a21-24.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">24<\/a> and Sustainable Development Goal <a href=\"https:\/\/sdgs.un.org\/goals\/goal5#targets_and_indicators\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">5<\/a>, which strip the distinction between male and female, making them nothing more than equal forms of an individual. That is the goal, to create a society of robotic forms that can continue to be manipulated into a world of conformity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Perhaps one could note that the only result of these changes, along with many other similar changes in society, has been the rise of children who are increasingly depressed, full of anxiety, suicidal with no sense of identity that extends into adulthood, and who struggle to find purpose. This travesty of abuse towards children is <a href=\"https:\/\/questionscity.com\/can-boys-join-girl-scouts\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">extended<\/a> to the Girl <a href=\"https:\/\/www.girlscouts.org\/en\/footer\/sustainability.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Scouts<\/a>. The solution is forming <a href=\"https:\/\/americanheritagegirls.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">groups<\/a> that bring back the original <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Boy_Scout_Handbook\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">scouting<\/a> values and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.traillifeusa.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">principles<\/a>, and forever eliminate what once was a cherished American organization.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As the news focuses on the tantalizing story of former President Trump&#8217;s hush money trial, the inflated minority antisemitic chaos across campuses which does not reflect the sentiments of 340 million people, and the latest gossip in entertainment, the evil doers continue their march in destroying one inner core of America that is hideously dismantling [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":24,"featured_media":15005,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[243],"tags":[1455,663,268],"class_list":["post-15004","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-opinions-op-eds","tag-boy-scouts","tag-sustainable-development","tag-un","cat-243-id"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/gemstatepatriot.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15004","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/gemstatepatriot.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/gemstatepatriot.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gemstatepatriot.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/24"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gemstatepatriot.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=15004"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/gemstatepatriot.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15004\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":15006,"href":"https:\/\/gemstatepatriot.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15004\/revisions\/15006"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gemstatepatriot.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/15005"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/gemstatepatriot.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=15004"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gemstatepatriot.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=15004"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gemstatepatriot.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=15004"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
