Eagle Scout project complete!

[Scott Lurndal]

Been there, done that, got the eagle ('76).

Scouting has changed in the 30 years since - much more religious than it used to be.

I do. Scouting is not about Religion. It is about Faith. Big difference.

It seems that you are determined to press the religious aspect. What's your problem?

I would suggest that parents have the right and responsibility concerning the religious training of their own children. If you don't like it, take your child out.

Very nice! Congratulations on the project. Quite a woodworker you have there. I imagine he is quite helpful in DIY repairs, with such skills.

I see a lot of negativity from a couple of people in here. It seems to me to be an on-topic item, moreso given the actual nature of the group. Remember, "Non illegitimi carborundum" (in actual Latin "Noli nothi permittere te terere") Don't let them wear you down.

For those protesting, look at the nature of the group. Have you responded to other perceived off-topic posts in the same way? There are plenty to be found in this group. Perhaps it was that this project (involving DIY skills) was religious in nature and that angered you? Remember that, even if the Constitution required the separation of church and state (it doesn't), it certainly says nothing about separation oc church and usenet.
