I was actually joking. I'm an Eagle Scout as well. I was in an incredibly small and pathetic troop of about 5-9 guys at any given time, and nobody really gave a shit about religion. I wasn't aware of just how extensive Christianity is purveyed throughout the organization until after I was out, but I did hear of a case of an Eagle Scout being stripped of his rank after he revealed that he was an atheist. To be honest, though, the main reason that I did it was because I got lots of money and plaques and shit. Though, of course, knowing first aid and knots and things of that sort (among them nature survival and fucking around in the woods doing crazy shit) is good to know/cool as well. Actually most of the meetings we just fucked around and talked about whatever we wanted to talk about. I don't know if I should even say that I was in a Boy Scout troop, it was more like just a bunch of buddies hanging out and occasionally doing Boy Scout stuff. I'm amazed that I even made it to Eagle Scout with all of the time that I wasted. I had to do 10 merit badges in 6 months, as well as my Eagle project. I actually had to wait almost a fucking year for my Eagle board of review because my entire council region is all fucked up, retarded, unorganized, and going through lots of changes. Or was anyway, 2 years ago. I don't know now, and don't really give a shit. Moral of the story, however, my troop was actually cool as fuck, though I haven't really kept in touch with anyone. Half of them joined the army though.
