You can read this sort of nonsense in the link below. Claims that Mandela was a Freemason, that the Jesuits control Islam -and pretty much everything else- and the symbols of the devil used by Scouts and so on. Some people actually believe this crap.

It's not Satan your parents should have been worried about-

"If Baden-Powell had had his way, the Boy Scouts might have formed close ties with the Hitler Youth. In 1937, he told (http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1256241/The-Hitler-Youth-plot-tried-worm-way-Scout-movement.html) the Scouts' international commissioner that the Nazis were "most anxious that the Scouts should come into closer touch with the youth movement in Germany." Baden-Powell met with the German ambassador in London and was invited to meet the Führer himself, though the war prevented him from visiting the Third Reich. But he continued to admire Hitler's values, writing in a 1939 diary entry that Mein Kampf was "a wonderful book, with good ideas on education, health, propaganda, organisation etc."
