It's a crying shame that the same liberals who bash gay priests
I believe you meant "who bash practicing pedophiles" there.
take
the opposite view when it comes to gay Boy Scout leaders. Neither
should be working with underage boys.

Philadelphia punishes Boy Scouts for 'discriminating' against
homosexuals
Yep. Their choice: they want to discriminate (as opposed to
"discriminate"), then they get off the public teat and
pay rent just like any other private entity.

What do you have against the Boy Scouts? They
are a wonderful organization and they have the
right to make a stand for decency.
Yes, Absolutely they do.
But if they choose to be discriminatory -- against
gays, against atheists, to be specific -- then legally
they cannot receive government funding. And that
was the path they themselves chose to take.
Homosexuals get free and very expensive treatment for AIDS that they
acquired as a result of their promiscuous sexual life style[1} at the
expense of the tax payers. Which dollar do you think is better spent.
The one that supports BSA or the one that rewards homosexual sexual
promiscuity?
Heh.
"Rewards"?
"MAKE BIG BUCKS!! CATCH HIV, GET RICH QUICK! OPERATORS
ARE STANDING BY!! DON'T HESITATE!!"
If you're asking me whether I'd rather my tax dollars go
towards medical research and public health, or for the
Boy Scouts, I'd say the former.
And buy the way, how much of each of my tax dollars goes
towards the treatiment of AIDS? And of those patients, what percent
actually receive "free treatment"?
Check it out, sweet lips:
"According to the National Cancer Institute, which operates under the
U.S. National Institutes of Health, our federal government funded
cancer research in 2006 to the tune of 4.79 billion dollars. Nice,
huh? Unless you consider this little nugget of information....
According to the Henry J. Kaiser Foundation’s website our federal
government funded AIDS research in 2006 to the much sweeter tune of -
get this - 21 BILLION dollars.
Excuse me, but I asked you about your claim that "Homosexuals get free
and very expensive treatment for AIDS".
Cancer, a universal killer that takes young and old, rich man, poor
man, doctor lawyer, and Indian chief alike without discrimination and
without regard to personal behavior gets just about one fourth of the
funding from the feds that AIDS, a disease that with some exceptions
is a behavior related condition."
***
Homosexual behavior, that is...
Twenty-five million heterosexual Africans disagree with you.
And no, I have not the slightest regret if we're funding research
that will save those victims, as well as others both here and
around the world.
