This is one I can’t wait to check out: On My Honor: Why the American Values of the Boy Scouts Are Worth Fighting For by Rick Perry:
Texas governor Rick Perry, through the legacy of the Boy Scouts of America, takes dead aim at the moral relativism of the secular humanist movement, indicting its corrosive impact on the culture. Examining the left’s legal assaults on the Boy Scouts of America - which span more than 30 years - Perry offers prescient insight into the multi-faceted war, which pits the proponents of traditional American values against the radical leftist movement that seeks to tear down our social foundations.
On My Honor underscores the depth to which the culture warriors of the left will go to force their secular humanist minority view upon American society and revered American institutions. It is a revealing look at a culture war that rages close to the surface of American life, and it is a must read for any American concerned that our society is slipping from the high moral ground of liberty to the valley of license.

My son is a Boy Scout and Murdoc is on the parent committee. It’s a great program that has done wonders for my boy and I see it doing good things for a lot of other boys right before my eyes. The boys learn self-confidence, moral values, patriotism, and how to take care of themselves among many other things.
No wonder so many people hate the Boy Scouts so much.
