The last of the Scout laws is reverence. The minimum expectation with this law is that a scout belongs to some religion, has some knowledge about the religion and could hold a discussion about it. Basically an expectation to attend services on a regular basis.
I understand and respect that some people choose to not participate in any religion. I know that national for whatever reason isn’t able to over look this fact, but as far as I’m concerned who cares. As long as the scouts that I help guide through their scouting experiences are understanding and respectful to all religious choices or lack there of, that’s good enough for me.
