CNN.com - Atheist Scout given a week to declare belief - Oct. 31, 2002

This seems at the same time ridiculous and sad. That they would force him out because of this is so closed-minded. Though I think it's pretty funny that they would accept 'mother nature' as his higher power. Would that make him a wicca scout? ;-)

Of course they also don't allow gays. I hope they go the way of the dinosaur soon. I'm glad Steven Speilberg took a stand and quit as a member of their board after that flak.
