<font color=blue>The local employees of the organisation seemed more interested in the business of scouting than in the spirit</font color=blue>
Depends on who you are referring to. My mom was the office manger for our council for 22 years. It was her job to run the local office (store) and oversee the council finances as well as the finances for the Scout camp. Her focus was as you say on the "business of scouting". I have however met many "professional scouters" who are more into the local politics of scouting (who sits on what board ect.) than on the program they are paid to promote.
Between the teachings of my parents, the Boy Scouts and my church, my moral compass is not easily deflected by our culture's ever changing situational morality.
