The Boy Scouts’ Motto is Be Prepared! But what could have possibly prepared eleven, twelve and even fifteen year olds for encounters with sexual predators? Especially when the same predators were suppose to teach these children high moral values. There are hundreds of accounts of these sexual molestation cases contained in what is termed the “Perversion Files” or "ineligible volunteer files". According to the Scouts these files were meant to be a “buffer” to prevent the predators from re-entering scouting. Unfortunately there have been numerous failures. After analyzing the files it was determined that in many instances sexual deviants were kicked out of the Scouts only to be allowed back in at a different location and sometimes under a different name. The stories are horrendous! The stories tell in somewhat explicit detail of boys being subjected to nudity, being fondled and raped by their Scout Masters. Keep in mind these are children. Keep in mind the Boy Scouts’ motto, “Be Prepared”. Be prepared for what and by whom?
Certainly, it would have been wonderful if these boys were prepared in some foolproof manner for these encounters with immoral predators. But who would have prepared them? The Boy Scouts? With their history, how likely would that be? And how would they have been prepared? These are just some of the questions we’ll seek to gain answers to through the Holy Scriptures in this program.

Prominent Atheist, Richard Dawkins, admitted to God’s existence or at least to a very small chance that God exists. This admission took place in a debate with Rowan Williams, the Archbishop of Canterbury. This debate was not what was expected of two men deemed to be polar opposites on the existence of God and evolution. Not only did Dawkins give the nod to God’s existence but the Archbishop apparently agreed with evolution. If these two men, who are highly esteemed and notable in their achievements in opposing arenas, can come to agreement, is this an indication that we all may some-day come to similar conclusions? Listen in as the Brothers in The Virtual Living Room discuss God’s existence and evolution.

But why does the contention occur? Is there really something wrong with same-sex marriage? If there were something wrong with same-sex marriage don’t you think members of the clergy would know that?

Shakespeare said, “A rose by any other name would smell as sweet” and the same applies to the term Sugar Daddy. No matter the term the meaning is still the same. Traditionally this is a rich usually middle-aged or old man who bestows expensive gifts on a young woman in return for companionship or sexual favors. Today, this relationship can be found in other combinations. Not just a rich old man and a young woman. The Sugar relationship can be found as a rich older woman and a young man. In fact, you name the gender combinations and you’ll be able to find a “Sugar Relationship” in the mix somewhere.
These relationships appear to be mutually beneficial. Money exchanged for romance and companionship on some level. But does the benefit carry true substance or is it merely superficial? Do these relationships cause harm that most people don’t perceive? In other words what’s so bad about the Sugar Daddy? - Show more
