BTW, the ACLU is looking into this, as we speak.
A Presbyterian church was happy to have Jeremy and Jodi Stokes as Cub RS>Scout leaders, at least until officials there found out they are Mormons RS>and told them they would have to step down because the church does not RS>consider them real Christians.
The Stokeses enrolled their sons as Scouts at Christ Covenant Church, a RS>Presbyterian congregation about 10 miles from Charlotte, N.C., then RS>expressed interest in volunteering as leaders. Church officials were RS>initially thrilled earlier this month, the Stokeses said, until they saw RS>on the couple's application forms that they belong to the Church of Jesus RS>Christ of Latter-day Saints.
After two Scout meetings, the Stokeses were told their sons, 6 and 8 years RS>old, could remain in their packs, but the parents couldn't serve as RS>leaders.

This proves nothing except that Christ Covenant Church has a certain criteria that their Cub Scout leaders are expected to meet....that the parents didn't.
The ACLU will no doubt obtain a ruling from some liberal whacko federal judge that will fuck everything up for everybody else. And the windup will probably be that there will be *no* Cub Scouting at, for, or by, that church organization, for anybody!
By the way.....the church is in the right, for the same reason that a Jewish Synagogue would be right to refuse a Gentile to take part in one of its activities.
