It depends on what you want to teach your hypothetical children. If you're saying, "hey, it's okay to be intolerant, as long as you agree with the particular flavor of intolerance" then by all means, join the BSA. If you want to teach them that intolerance is intolerance, then don't. And, frankly, it's one of the same reasons I don't go in for the church thing, either. It's often just another flavor of intolerance. (And, before anyone jumps on me, there's a difference between church and personal belief.)
