I was confused by this for a second, sb, lol. I actually went to p.53 of my big book to look for this quote. It's still early, k?
BUT I did see one of my favorite lines on p. 53 of the BB, "When we became alcoholics, crushed by a self-imposed crisis we could not postpone or evade, we had to fearlessly face the proposition that either God is everything or else He is nothing. God either is, or He isn't. What was our choice to be?"
