Scouts may introduce atheist promise, after 105 years
The Scout Association is considering adopting a new “atheist” promise for the first time in its 105-year history.
Currently, in order to join the Scouts youngsters must pledge: “On my honour, I promise that I will do my best, To do my duty to God and to the Queen, To help other people, And to keep the Scout Law.”
And the Guides are also thinking of rewriting their promise to love God and serve the Queen.

Agreed, American boy scouts should promise to do their duty to God and to the Queen.

Listing things together doesn't prove there's a correlation between them. Proving there's a correlation between them doesn't prove one caused the others.
"movement’s founder, Lord Baden-Powell. He ranked atheism alongside gambling, swearing and drunkenness in a handbook for boys."
He is proved correct in modern society. Lottery/gambling is accepted and encouraged by governments and so called churches, and drunkenness is increasing in the community. So atheism comes with all the other satanic wickedness a lawless and Godless society can conjure up.
All that these changes demonstrate is that western society is in spiritual and moral decline. As Romans chapter one teaches the wrath of God is upon us, and righteously so. What we will observe in years to come is the continued decline of Bible doctrine, precepts and laws and the increase of satanic sinful influence upon all aspects of society.
