Allowing local organizations to decide their own policies might be a good idea if the more liberal factions really allow it without pressure from the sissie lobby. It would be interesting to follow up on the incidences of pedophile behavior in more liberal areas.
For most gay rights issues I think that a patchwork of rights is unnacceptable. However, I support the Scouts resolving it this way
The Boy Scouts are different organizationally than other youth groups. A Little League team may be sponsored by a local Pizza joint who pays for their uniforms and gets a trophy at the end of the year. But scout groups belong to their sponsoring organization. If a Baptist Church sponsors a Boy Scout troop that troop serves as a youth organization of that church who executes a Boy Scout program.
As much as I support gay rights, I don't think you can force that Baptist church to accept gays in its youth organization
