Wrong. The ACLU attacked government sponsorship of the Boy Scouts of America, because of their religious discrimination (no homosexuals or atheists are allowed in the organization). Not once, that I'm familiar with, did the ACLU try and force the Boy Scouts to admit homosexuals or atheists.

Exactly my point. The ACLU is trying to remove any expression of religion from organizations, wheras the constitution, IMO, protects organizations religious freedom. There is no reason the govt cant sponsor a religious organization, as along as all religious organizations have the same opportunity.
