Free Republic on AA and "embracing the homosexual lifestyle"

[Stuart G]

12. Quote.. page 47...big book..first two sentences on that page........

"When therefore we speak to you of God, it is your own conception of God." "This applies too to other spiritual expressions you find in this book."

Please...this God stuff is each persons conception of a higher power. hit the link and look at page 47 at the top...That is it...We/AA is not a religious group.. Some people like the spirituality and peace of the meetings...That is ok, and some talk of God, and that is ok, and some don't give a damn...and that is ok....What I believe is what I believe...


Also...please think of this....we /AA cannot and will not discriminate...why? only purpose is to help the suffering alcoholic/drug addict.......why..that is it...............

Today...I saw someone sleep thru the entire meeting...........so what??? .......he didn't bother anyone..he wants to sleep, I as the leader..said.........."Let him sleep." He was quiet.. big deal.. and, I can assure you of this...we don't care about anyone's sexuality as long as they do not take off their clothes and show us...that might be disruptive...you know what I mean???? I would be long gone if it wasn't for the 12 step programs...dead and gone.......
