For the AA Folks

Or not "worship" at all. I am sober with 0 god whatsoever. I am 100% accountable for my actions.

Read the preamble…

The only requirement for membership is a desire to stop drinking . There are no dues or fees for AA membership; we are self supporting through our own contributions. AA is not allied with any sect, denomination, politics, organization or institution; does not wish to engage in any controversy, neither endorses nor opposes any causes. Our primary purpose is to stay sober and help other alcoholics to achieve sobriety.

Stop trying to figure it out. There’s nothing to understand. Believe as you wish, and allow others to do the same. Try not to pick out certain words and phrases from the program, while choosing to ignore others. All of those words were chosen in hopes to be as inclusive as possible. You are here with about 2 weeks of sobriety. Whatever you choose to believe, I hope you find the solution to your drinking problems.

I believe this is trolling. Making a controversial statement in an attempt to garner the response he’s been given.

Bingo

I’m recovery we are taught to be nonjudgmental

Progress not perfection bud.

I kinda think you're right.

Sobriety is the ultimate goal, isn’t it? How one goes about it is an individual decision.

“The god of your understanding”

Of course I believe there’s only one God and He is Jesus Christ.. I do believe in the spiritual part of the program.. I do believe that you have to have that one on one relationship with Him.. I grew up in a Pentecostal church and I believe that to a point but I know I have to have my individual relationship.. I know my God gives me strength to get thru each day.. without drinking or drugs.. for example this weekend I was supposed to do something I really wasn’t wanting to do and I prayed about it and it didn’t happen.. because the other person couldn’t make it.. not me… I was so glad God took care of that situation.. I can only give Him the glory to get’n me out of a situation I was dreading.. I don’t know where these people get their information on who God is and isn’t.. but mine is a good loving God.. and I thank Him everyday.. God is good all the time ..!!!

So American Jesus is the ONLY god? For the whole world?

Pentecostals are the absolute kookiest of the kooky.
