Yea... here's more to think-on  Parson Andy

*I was a a scout camp in the cascades for a week.
The "Chaplan"  would get up early, sit on a log with a view of
Mount Jefferson and just sing praise hyms out loud...

He spent his day, just hanging out and set up a chess board
so you could stop and play a game or watch a game being played..

*I talked with him.. and he "ministered to me"

he didn't play on my religious affliation or debate the red points
or hassle me over a "calling"... He just acted as a friend and advisor.

The guy "ministered to me"

*See.. he just "reflected" on the positive aspects of his Christian
testimony without the "magic show" He let the boys lead the conversation,
and was liberal in his responces... Light hearted and open minded.

He knew...  the Boy's came from many backgrounds, family situations
and held stresses that could be addressed by pure fellowship and grace.

First.. friendship- then conversation<G> result: ministry!

I don't see where the new program or the old program are availible
in the community. *If 97% of the boys never are allowed access to
Royal Rangers what difference is it?

Cdr. Marriot should sell Royal Rangers as a franchise to any group
who would want to sponser a Christian scouting program. Say I have
the means..

Why must a Aog pastor be included in Royal Rangers chartering?
*Special "Top-Down" domination control?
