This story may be bit encouraging and I remember listening to this on the
radio last year. Scouts sell $28,000 of popcorn in booth near ACLU Virginia
Headquarters. Last year their fundraiser brought in less than $300. Keep in
mind Ranger programs are supported by churches and receive a built in
support network with that church body. We have it easy at our churches. Any
association/ company having anything to do with the scouts is being sued.
They can't even find places to meet in some instances.

I know this. I am just showing  how run amuck this separation of church and
state has really degenerated to. Rangers pull it off every four years
without Federal bucks, I'm sure that they will be able to adapt. Who knows
maybe Rangers might even be able to help them!  I felt bad for them when I
heard this.
