If meeting any of the requirements for this merit badge is against the Scout’s religious convictions, the requirement does not have to be done if the Scout’s parents and the proper religious advisors state in writing that to do so would be against religious convictions. The Scout’s parents must also accept full responsibility for anything that might happen because of this exemption. Requirement 2a is being added for health and safety, and to provide consistency with the Personal Fitness merit badge.
NOTE: Although the time period in requirement 3a was changed to 3 months, the same change was not made to requirement 3d.
