In point of fact, the Unitarian Universalists are the ONLY "mainstream" Christian Religion that embraces the gay culture, as evidenced by their ongoing fight to have their religion accepted by the Boy Scouts as an accepted Christian Religion that could satisfy the "spiritual" component required of all Boy Scouts of a certain age upward. I know this because I chose NOT to sign my son up for Boy Scouts after reading their requirements regarding their Oath of Allegience etc.....please see this: Duty to God as proof. Blech.

● Webelos Scout
A boy is required to either “[e]arn the religious emblem of your faith” or do two of the following:

“Attend the church, synagogue, mosque, or other religious organization of your choice, talk with your religious leader about your beliefs, and tell your family and Webelos den leader about what you learned.”;

“Tell how your religious beliefs fit in with the Scout Oath and Scout Law, Discuss this with your family and Webelos den leader: What character-building traits do your beliefs and the Scout Oath and Scout Law have in common?”;

“With your religious leader, discuss and write down two things you think will help you draw nearer to God. Do these things.”;

“Pray to God or meditate reverently each day as taught by your family, and by your church, synagogue, or religious group. Do this for at least one month.”;

“Under the direction of your religious leader, do an act of service for someone else. Talk about your service with your family and Webelos den leader. Tell them how it made you feel.”; or

“List at least two ways you believe you have lived according to your religious beliefs.”

and the Boy Scouts work hand in hand with the Religious Right, believe me.
