JD’s comment about my blog: I’m simply a person like you, too. I am not an alcoholic, although alcohol was one of the many drugs I used in my active addiction and I cannot safely drink it. I also rely on the 12 steps of AA (as adapted by my own fellowship) and the God of my understanding for my daily survival and well-being. (I’ve been “clean & sober” for 25 yrs.) Even though I am not an alcoholic, I am a grateful member of AA because the only requirement is a desire to stop drinking, which I have.

About a month ago, a member of my home group invited me to attend this other group she goes to once a week for a Big Book study. It sounded good…focusing on the Big Book. When I got to the church, I was shocked at the number of people. After opening the meeting, me and a friend along with others who were new to the group, were ushered off into a small cramped, hot room with an “AA teacher” (I will explain). We were told we had to go to this other meeting…strange? It got stranger.

If Bill (AA co-founder) had turned his concept of AA into a profit-driven entity, it would not have survived. It would have just been another “program” that eventually evolved into an artificial, lifeless vehicle of greed at the expense of real human suffering.
