I have not disclosed on these pages before and the incredible stupidity and vanity in your comments confirm why that was a good idea. If you are going to be a jerk about it keep your effing nose out of AA! I don't give a damn if there are individual AA groups that deal with "gay issues". Out of the several hundred folks I may have met in the fellowship I know precisely two to be homosexual based on comments made in meetings. There may be others but I don't care; it is not relevant to me or my reason for attending.
Should I ask the mod to tie your ears together? Actually I don't mind your bringing up the issue for discussion without name calling and I hoped you might learn something from the mostly measured responses some of us gave you. But when you slander those you know nothing about you set yourself on a par with Matthews, Sharpton, Pelosi, Reid, Obama, and others that most of us here consider the real problem with this country. Your "see how they are" comment was very Chris Matthews in both style and substance.
Before you type another unfortunate response please interlock your fingers and crack your knuckles, (if you are able to do so) sip an adult beverage or any other cool drink of your choice, and then take several slow and deep breaths.
Oh, I have attending meetings with many blacks (figuring that out most of the time even when they didn't openly admit to having dark skin). I suspect I may have met some Jews from time to time based on mention of certain holidays and family traditions. Unlike John Semmens I do not warn about parody or tongue-in-cheek in my titles.
Where is the name calling in my post?
I merely said AA’s are brainwashed by the left. Did I call anybody a jerk? You did , but I didn’t.
Saying someone is brainwashed when they are is not name calling. It is a statement of fact.
Here is an excerpt from a letter to Christianity Today from an ex-gay. He says it better than I possibly could:
“After 10 years in AA, I became a gay activist, believing homosexuality to be God’s will. AA affirmed that for me through its many gay special interest group meetings. Bitter and humiliating political defeat,coupled with the realization of my living a sinful life in “sobriety,”
helped bring me to Christ.
Apparently these are the consequences of sin I must learn to
live with, meanwhile counting my blessings that they’re not far worse.But I would say AA holds at least a small degree of responsibility formy slide into heresy. Thank God I was shown a way out from AA’steachings. Many remain lost.

uhh ohh..asking for trouble again I see.
I darkness has seeped its way into all facets of society as he is a the perfect deceiver and liar. But, easily seen by the even partially awake.
Are you saying those that cannot see that evil is at work, or who justify it, are not Spiritually Awake?
Maybe they have not had that spiritual awakening that is talked about in their 12 steps, but are just lost souls, substituting an addiction to meetings to their previous addiction to alcohol.
That is another thing about Alcoholics Anonymous. Seldom , if ever, will you hear the Devil talked about. It is as if Evil does not exist for them.
And AA is not a church - you are truly obsessed with AA not being Christian enough and with homosexuality. It can't be healthy. Get help.
Yes, and that is where evil wants people...to not see it’s presence. If the enemy is not seen, or seen as us, it controls us. That is why communism is so evil, it teaches the denial of God so that the people can become better slaves to communists...or socialism, which is it’s close relative.
Congrats on your 16 years...I’m going on three myself.
AA has Christian Roots. The Steps came from the Bible as Dr. Bob, one of the founders said. The Steps talk about having a Spiritual Awakening. You cant have had a Spiritual awakening and believe Homosexuality is OK>
But the fact of the matter is it has become watered down, corrupted, and lost its way.
Where do you suggest I get help? From some Godless Psychiatrist who has been brainwashed by a University that Homosexuality is normal? Or maybe the local Democratic Party Headquarters?
Thank you. Same to you, my FRiend. It certainly is a easier softer way of life.
May God Bless those lost in homosexuality, the grace to see they are wrong. And may all those AA’s who are enabling them see it also.
