Straight people in a Straight camp with only boys would have no reason to experiment.....They are not attracted to the same sex....Why can't you get that through your head????????????

So you'd never send your kid to a coed camp?

I was a boy Scout for 14 years.

Nothing I do is against it.

I am trustworthy, loyal, helpful, courteous, kind, cheerful, thrifty, brave, clean, and reverent.

I do my duty to my God and country. I still obey the Scout law, I help other people all the time, I am physically strong, mentally awake and morally straight.

I am an eagle.

So not sure what this post is about.

So then you would send your kid to a coed camp. Let me ask you this, which do you think is more likely:

That two campers would engage in sexual experimentation in their own cabin/group tent/etc, or that they'd do so by sneaking out and going somewhere else?

I don't have kids. I was asking a hypothetical question that you're now attempting to dodge. Are you going to answer that question?

Because I need a just depends option. For instance, most lesbians don't concern me at all--except one every blue moon--and most gay men I know don't bother me either, but then there are the others.....

The Catholic church also teaches against many things that you support......so are you saying that it is ok to pick and choose what you want to believe?

I'm God fearing Roman Catholic, I was also raised in a Roman Catholic family.

get this through your thick blunt skull, nothing in the Bible says anything about homosexuality. your failure to understand scripture makes you a blasphemer. how do dare you misrepresent Scripture and thank you can call yourself a Catholic.

left wing? who said I was left wing? how does conservative as you are. the only difference is a far better understanding Scripture then you do.

You are just being baited. That side of the aisle just refuses to acknowledge that there are creepy gays out there who are in people's face with it in what most people not looking to make a political point would find somewhere between inappropriate and absolutely rude. There are gays I don't care if my kids are around, and there are gays that no parent in the right mind would let their child be around unattended for an extended period of time.

And that's just as true for straight people. More, in fact, if you look at the statistics. Given those two unavoidable facts, it's hard to avoid the further conclusion that this fixation that Maggie, and NP, and (apparently) you have about creepy gay people is - to put it mildly - unfair.

You are completely wrong. Of course there are some gays...just like some straights that are "Creepy" guys that you wouldn't want your kids around. But it is completely naive to believe that you are somehow "protecting" your children with a blanket policy that you wouldn't send your kid to a camp with an openly gay counselor. The reality is....THAT counselor is not likely to be a "molestor" and chances are...you stand a greater risk sending them to a camp with supposedly straight/married in the closet counselors. But yet...certain people are perfectly fine with that because they pull the wool over their eyes and pretend that their children are safe.

Whether or not I have children (hypothetically or otherwise) is irrelevant.

Then probably not to be honest if it was a sleep away camp and the openly gays were not segregated. Too many bad things could happen either way in that setting.

well you're apparently following a charlatan, and woe be onto you for misrepresenting Christian Scripture. The Naked follow the blind all the time,
 
Re: Would you allow your son to go to camp where there were openly gay members? [W:19

First of all I love "my left wing friend" still ... Hello Navy hope u are good.

On topic now I dont have a son but I do have lots of nephews and gay relatives who are just fine to hang out together or camp. As with any stranger gay or straight I would be cautious to let them go unless I knew them and was sure there is no second agenda. I would not let "gay" define someone's character as to whether or not they could be trusted wiith a child I love. Predators come in all forms
