I"m with miss c ...
but being a redneck by nature
(or just for sport - I'm not sure sometimes)
I have a hard time on occasion with the 'let live' part.
I am AA,
I do not hesitate to say were it not for that Program
and what I received from the Fellowship ...
I would not be alive typing this right now.
but even I am turned off by the hard core,
non-listening, repetetive, preach methodology I've witnessed.
That flys in the face of everything I believe
not only about the program,
but as a human being;
So I walk.
It's all I can think to do without...
you know.
Going all redneck.
I know who I am.
I know I'm okay.
I know what I've done - has worked.
My spirituality isn't threatened just because someone says God ...
And the God of my understanding isnt threatened because someone
wants the freedom to call it something else.
ANd I am not threatened because AA is not the only way.
AA is not even the only way *I* know.
But then I'm a tad ornery at times.
I think this is a great idea for a thread, by the way.
