After a confidential two-year review, the Boy Scouts of America this week emphatically reaffirmed its policy of excluding gays, ruling out any changes despite relentless protest campaigns by some critics, reported Telegram.com.
An 11-member special committee, formed discreetly by top Scout leaders in 2010, "came to the conclusion that this policy is absolutely the best policy for the Boy Scouts," the organization' national spokesman, Deron Smith, told The Associated Press.

I have no problem with it as long as they keep their sexuality issues separate.
Could they do that,I doubt it.
I would think someone gay would be able to answer this one better.
