An 11-year old boy from Midsomer Norton, near Bath, Somerset, has been told he cannot join his local Scout troop because he does not believe in God and doesn't want to make the Scout Promise in its present form. This requires Scouts to "do their duty by God and the Queen".

Huh...I admit I didn't know the UK had the Scouts. Are the affiliated at all with the Boy Scouts of America?
