  1. Gays have no place in Boys Scouts

    The Sun's editors are the only people I know who can speak of homosexuality and morality in the same breath ("Scout's honor," Feb. 6) when, in fact, they are totally opposite. The scriptures make it plain that homosexuality is an abomination in the eyes of the Lord. Men performing indecent acts with other men is shameful. Women performing indecent acts with women is shameful.

  2. Scouts are not a one-size-fits-all operation

  3. The Scouts and gays

    Over the past 103 years, America's churches have built the Boy Scouts of America (BSA) into the nation's most successful youth group — which makes it remarkable that the BSA stands ready to let gays join Scouting, thus publicly renouncing the wishes of some of its oldest and dearest friends.

  4. Scouts' honor

    The leaders of the Boy Scouts of America are expected to vote tomorrow on whether to scrap the organization's long-standing national ban on admitting gay Scouts and Scout leaders, and to replace it with a policy that allows the religious and civic organizations that sponsor individual Scout units to set their own rules on the issue. The ban on gay Scouts is an anachronism that flies in the face of the overdue societal trend toward greater inclusiveness, tolerance and acceptance of diversity. We hope the group's leaders will seize the opportunity presented by this vote to do what's morally and ethically right for the 2.7 million member group whose values have shaped the character of generations of American boys and young men.

  6. Editorial polls seem out of whack

    The results of The Sun's "What Maryland thinks" polls seem so out of tune with other polls' results. The first one I noticed asked the question if Hillary Clinton had done a good job as secretary of state. The results were overwhelmingly negative....

  11. Proud of my scout, not of the Scouts

    With school only weeks away, it's time to think ahead to earlier bedtimes, nightly homework, after-school soccer &mdash; and Scouts.
    With school only weeks away, it's time to think ahead to earlier bedtimes, nightly homework, after-school soccer — and Scouts. My son's a Webelos this year. Having decided to join in first grade, he's stayed with it. He's learned how to carve a...
