BSA has asked Obama to be their honourary president. A coalition of secular organizations in the United States have requested that he reject the request on the basis that the BSA discriminates against non-theists and homosexuals.
Their submission says: "Accepting the title and role of honorary president of the Boy Scouts of America would thus send the message that institutional discrimination against people who don’t happen to believe in a god is acceptable."
