(Newser) - As the Boy Scouts of America continues to wrestle with the question of whether to admit gay members and leaders, it's decided to take members' opinions into account. Some 1.1M scouts and their families received surveys recently, with questions like:
- Should gay scouts be allowed to share tents with straight scouts on camping trips?
- Does the scout oath's reference to being "morally straight" imply being sexually straight?
- If a church sponsoring a scout troop (more than 70% of units are chartered by faith-based organizations) supports or opposes homosexuality, should that make a difference?
