:lol:

The church got out of the BSA for financial and legal reasons, who is he kidding??? And they didn't leave a 'church'... a real estate corporation left the BSA due to primarily financial concerns and potential future litigation.

They are likely still liable for a LOT legally. GAs were on the board of BSA when all the various s*** went down, so those people can they can still be held liable.

I agree with Ballard. The BSA was moving away from the church. For example:
BSA: required background checks
LDS Church: meh
BSA: 2 deep leadership
LDS Church: 1:1 sexual interviews with kids
BSA: 4-6 hour training on sexual abuse
LDS Church: 13 minute cartoon video

I think what Ballard may have meant was that the BSA decided to no longer exclude gay scouts, which inflamed the Brethren's feelings.
