I suggested this to you back in April; it would appear you haven't taken my suggestion.......I prefer recovery from the BB; you seem to want to go by what folks say, even if not validated by AA literature. Be very careful with that; there's a lot of crap being spewed as AA which isn't even close

(o:
I hear ya on that! Lots of crazy talk in AA to watch out for. Like people who smoke dope or do other drugs and say it's ok because it doesn't specifically say you can't do those things in the Big Book, even though doing those things means you aren't sober. People use everything they can to justify their actions. It's a crazy disease to say the least.
