I'm on the CF Leader list and I received this. What I didn't say on that
list is that I thought this was a horrible way to take this article!
Outreach for Camp Fire based on Boy Scouts' anti-gay policies? There are so
many good things about Camp Fire, that this should be way down on the list.

Our club was founded by a lesbian couple and we still have another same sex
family in the club. So, I'm well aware of the gay issue and how wonderful it
is that there is an alternative for them (although there shouldn't have to be
one). But that's not what Camp Fire is all about. Using articles like this
diverts the issue.

Okay, that was probably totally off-topic for this list, but I knew a lot of
you would understand, and I always get in trouble on the CF Leader list. ;)

The Girl Scouts and Boy Scouts are two different organizations.
