I would like to hear about the numbers of people who attend meetings (if meeting are attended). Are there just a few, maybe 50, or a hundred or more, that kind of numbers.
I am curious about fellowship. BBQ's, dances, etc.
I am curious about the books that might be read.

Maybe you need a warning yourself, don't you know that the more you stir it the more it stinks.........said in love.
I love you and there is not a damn thing you can do about it.
If I am cruious about secular recovery do I not have the right to post here and ask questions?.......toad

This thread seems doomed.
Toad, I went back to the original post. I'm not sure what the "question" was.
Really, does it matter how I got sober? How does it effect your sobriety?
It doesn't matter where you post or what meeting you go to or don't go to....How ever you get/got sober is YOUR business. No matter where you post on SR personally, I'm only interested in hearing your experiences. Not your judgment of other people's experiences. I find the bickering and "my way is better than your way" thoughts tiresome and so counterproductive. It wears me out. But then, that's just my opinion, it might be wrong.

They had to close a thread.......what does that tell you?
"Love and tolerance is our code."

Can the monitors please ban people who continue to stir things up in a thread that has absolutely nothing in common with their own recovery? This person clearly has an agenda to be disruptive and I would hope that you will take a stance on this.
