(Pasaden Star News) Doug Boyd of Glendora has been part of the Boy Scouts of America for more than 50 years, and he can`t see any reason to change rules that bar gays from joining the private organization.

I know a little more about this subject, having two incredible sons of my own. But, we always look at life differently from the other side of it. My boys are grown. I’m still parenting, but in a completely different way. Mine now is one of influence. Thankfully, both boys still come to me for that influence. There is no greater joy than seeing boys become God-honoring young men. I’m thankful to have a front row seat with my sons.

They`ll warn that tyranny is always lurking just around the corner. You should reject these voices."
