Scout Promise

The scouts have been going for over 100 years so why ask them now to change their promise?

Human rights watchdog investigates 'discrimination' of Scout promise to God | the Daily Mail

I took the brownie guide promise when i was 7 and the Guide promise when i was 22, took the scout promise when i was 18 when i became a leader. The only time i really did go to church was when i was confirmed and mum made me go to church for a year without fail, since then i hardly ever go in fact the last time i was in a church was for a christening last June and the time before that was mums funeral. I know someone who took that promise at the age of 7 at the same time as me and has never stepped foot in a church except for the hatch, match and despatch services. It didnt stop her from making the brownie promise so why say they are discriminating against kids who dont believe in god
