Really? It seems to me this post is about many of you being holier than them.

And the values of the Girl Scouts (and/or their alternatives) are what exactly?

Get kids (or rather their parents) to hawk candy so that the CEO of the organization can rake in six figures and give them dollar store badges as payment?

While overall, I think AHS is a little silly, and probably not necessary, I also can't refuse anyone their freedom to raise children in social groups they find ideal. After all, my liberal parents tired to do the same for me, while living in an extremely conservative, somewhat rural area.

Whatever mental gymnastics you have to do to sleep at night. I know what she was doing. Anybody with reasonable comprehension skills knew what she was doing.

Bullshit. OP knew exactly the connection she was making.

It's obvious your reasoning skills are weak, so I'll try to keep it simple. When you say "goes hand in hand with" your are making a blanket statement about an entire group. I know, crazy right?

Actually, I'm not saying that reporting on it is making it an issue. The "us vs them" comes from both sides, and both sides should be held responsible for how they respond to one another. I'm not mad that Christian (thanks for the quotation marks, by the way) parents want their kids to be a part of a religious…

I'm not saying everyone's worldview is right or good, but parents are allowed to choose how to raise their kids. What's important is what happens when those kids grow up and are able to think for themselves. And the tragedy comes when that isn't allowed to happen. It's not perfect, but it's what we have to work…

The old "every religious person is a molester rapist" trope. That didn't take long.

Because it doesn't align with Jezebel's worldview, which as we know, is the the only correct one.

I grew up in Christian Girl Scout alternatives, this is absolutely nothing new. I was a Pioneer Girl and later (after an out-of-state move) a GA (an abbreviation I can't remember the full meaning of). I realize there are many problematic things in evangelical Christianity today (seeing as how I am still involved in…

How is this new and why are you surprised by this? The Baptists have had Awanas since 1941. Assemblies of God started Missionettes in 1955 and Royal Rangers in 1962. Seventh-day Adventists have Pathfinders, founded in 1928. All of them have badges, sashes, guide books, rules, camps, and pledges. (all equally…

Seems like a pretty standard theologically based youth organization to me. Can't wait for the 4-H expose.

...and this is why Magic needs the triple drug cocktail every morning in order to live and A.C. doesn't.

Wait, I always thought that Jezebel's position on gender biology is that there is basically no difference between the brain chemistry of the genders and that any attempts to establish one were patriarchal bullshit. Did I miss something?

Jezebel.com slogan-

So, as soon as a scientific study comes out that shows women might be superior at something, rather than the other way around, all of the sudden you drop the sarcastic "Oh rly mister science man" snark and lap it up like hungry kittens huh?

Wait, so men’s and women’s brains are inherently different?

Looks like a white guy to me lol.

Are the "bad guys" still Nazis in the new game? I might consider trying it if they are but if they are just some "nazi like" regime I will pass. If they are too concerned about making a politically correct game that will sell in Germany I have no reason to play it.
