Religious Emblems
"A Scout is reverent." All Scouts show this by being faithful in their duty
to God. Some go further and give special service. This can qualify them for a
religious emblem. Such an emblem is not a Scouting award. It is conferred on a
Scout by his religious leader. Each faith has its own requirements for earning
its emblem.
