Actually, it's not. The BSA are funded almost entirely by public money, supported by government subsidies, and hold meetings in public areas, particularly schools. They're a public organization and thus don't have the right to exclude gays, atheists, or whatever, the same way a school can't say "You're gay? Get out."

"It's their freedom to do so" is the kind of bullshit people spout who typically believe that South Park is the end-all-be-all of morality.
Good point, I'll change that.

Oh and for once I agree with Preechr. You live your reliion, i'll live mine and the government stays out of my love life. Good post.
