Ok, I do accept this: that some conservative Christian groups are so wedded to their anti-LGBT bigotry that if the BSA does not let exercise their bigotry within the BSA, they will leave and exercise their bigotry outside it. So be it. The notion that we will somehow change hearts and minds by _accommodating_ and implicitly granting _approval_ to despicable attitudes is bogus. Civilized people in the modern world treat all people with respect and dignity. The BSA needs to decide what its values are. And if it decides to accommodate anti-LGBT bigotry for the sake of maintaining membership, it should be called out and condemned for doing so. --- _[View the full topic](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/boy-scouts-of-america-files-for-bankruptcy/848108)._
