Another positive step in the right direction for an organization rife with brokenness. There’s a lot I don’t like about the organization, but this is something a love–a scouting organization open to young women and the lgbtq community. The next step is being inclusive of nonreligious agnostic and atheist youth and leaders. As well as ending the cultural appropriation of Native American peoples.

May this organization continue to build up youth, never allow further violence against youth, and make amends for all the wrongs. There’s a lot of good that comes out of organizations like this and I won’t discount it even though it’s riddled with a dark history.

    I just wish to be thankful towards a thing at times and it can help to personify it.

    That aspect reminds me of the Shinto belief that everyday objects have little spirits in them. I don’t believe in spirits, but I can see how this could be an interesting or useful mental exercise.

    Best of luck with your religion. Have you fought any holy wars yet?

      The only holy wars fought thus far involve conflicts over the correct installation of toilet paper rolls. And there is a right way.

      Some things are worth dying for.
