The UU MOU demonstrates that they still discriminate. Any Christian denomination is automatically acceptable, for atheists they have to pick and choose saying "you're one of the good ones".
OK, that's irrelevant. Those were clearly MY opinions, a demonstration of how I refuse to label things with the term 'god', followed by the rationale for me doing so.
I am not using any definition of 'god', I am just saying that it has a definition, not any specific one just some definition, otherwise the term would be meaningless. And if I were to label anything 'god' it would be because that thing fulfilled the requirements for this unspecified definition. If I were to label something as 'red' it would be because it fulfills the requirements to be called 'red'. If it did not fit the definition of 'red' I would not apply the label 'red'. In the same way, I would not label something as 'god' unless I thought the label fit. If I were to label something as 'god' it would imply that there was something different about it when compared to something that I would refuse to apply the term 'god' to. And there is nothing that I would be willing to label 'god'.
Gotcha. You're a connoisseur of religious philosophy. You know that it can only be called "god" if it comes from a specific region in France. Every other worldview is "sparkling belief".
Apparently I have to say this again. Those are MY opinions. The goal of me sharing my opinions point out a position that I suspected would not be accepted by the scouts, at least your in interpretation of their rules. Your response was that atheists that did not believe the same as me could be accepted, which was irrelevant to the point. And here you insult me. Congratulations, you have confirmed my suspicions.
Have a wonderful day.
