The once-storied Boy Scouts of America are toast.
The BSA has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in an effort to stave off an avalanche of lawsuits filed by victims of sexual abuse at the hands of homosexual scoutmasters. It has established a victims’ compensation fund that may have as much as $1 billion in it to make reparations to the thousands upon thousands of young boys raped by older males who found the BSA to be a target-rich environment for their twisted urges.
The lawsuit may require the organization to divest itself of much of its extremely valuable property. By the time the plaintiffs are done, the BSA will be an empty shell of its former self.
The Scouts at one time had four million boys enrolled in their program. That number has now been cut in half, and they have resorted to desperate measures to keep their ship afloat, including adding girls to their number. In the wake of their implosion, organizations like Trail Life USA have risen to take their place. Trail Life adheres to the values that characterized the BSA in days gone by, such as doing “my best to do my duty to God” and to “keep myself...morally straight.” And they carefully screen volunteers to make sure no pedophiles are allowed anywhere near the boys in the program, something the Boy Scouts fatally failed to do.
One pathology that LGBT activists will not acknowledge is the unmistakable connection between homosexuality and pedophilia. The American Professional Society on the Abuse of Children stated flatly that “the vast majority of the offenders are male.”
The Journal of Sex & Married Therapy, in a study of male sex offenders against children, found that one-third of the offenders directed their sexual activity against males. And the Journal of Sex Research found that homosexual pedophiles commit about one-third of the total number of sex offenses against children.
This fact is enormously disturbing. Homosexuals comprise just two percent of the population, yet are responsible for 33% of all instances of child sexual abuse. They offend against children at 16 times the rate of the normal population, further evidence that homosexuality is hardly a benign variant to heterosexuality.
The Archives of Sexual Behavior, in a study of 229 convicted child molesters, found that “eighty-six percent of offenders against males described themselves as homosexual or bisexual.”
Thus it comes as no surprise to discover that research into the priesthood scandal in the Roman Catholic Church reveals that 81% of the victims of clergy abuse are young boys. The Harrisburg Pennsylvania Diocese filed for bankruptcy yesterday, after paying out $12 million to 106 victims of abuse at the hands of pedophile priests. It has less than $10 million in assets and $100 million in liabilities. Homosexual pedophiles may bring down not only the Boy Scouts but the Roman Catholic Church in America.
Both organizations were lax in screening out homosexuals to prevent them from having ready access to young boys, and the bill for that failure is coming due. Jesus said (Luke 17:1-2), “Stumbling blocks are sure to come, but woe to the one through whom they come. It would be better for him if a millstone were hung around his neck and he were cast into the sea than that he should cause one of these little ones to stumble.” These organizations are discovering that Jesus meant exactly what he said.
