Officials say the name change aims to make everyone feel welcome, while the move is also being seen as an attempt to move on from bankruptcy following a flood of sexual abuse claims. Last year BSA agreed to pay $2.46 billion to settle claims by some 82,000 former Boy Scouts who said they had been sexually abused by BSA officials and volunteers.

Next change will be "They/Them Scouts of America".???
Whats your point?
I'm not a proponent of pronouns either but kid touchers irritate me more than pronouns. One has absolutely nothing to do with the other in that respect. Agree with OBB. Ever notice most BSA meetings, historically, have been held on church campuses?! That has more relevance than your premise!
