I'm Back
I spilled water on my Router and my internet was down for almost a week., I am however, back up and running. And my "stuff" does not seem quite as bad as I thought. God is good but, I have been forgetting to let him be God.
I work tommorow and then I get to have dinner with the "girls" before Happy, Joyous and Free(the Thursday night women's meeting). God is good all the time, all the time God is good. ¶ 3/07/2007 06:40:00 PM

glad you're back. My computer at home is on the blink. My husband says I have some sort of magnetic field around me that breaks computers.....
True Believer Syndrome
I wondered if most people in AA are suffering from True Believer Syndrome. Since by definition those suffering from true-believer syndrome are irrationally committed to their beliefs, there is no point in arguing with them. Evidence and logical argument mean nothing to them. Such people are by definition deluded in the psychiatric sense of the term: they believe what is false and are incapable of being persuaded by evidence and argument that their notions are in error. I've mentioned your site and Orange Papers but I imagine the AA trance becomes so powerful that the AA's brains are incapable of responding to anything that is not AA oriented. They have a semi - depressed look about them & there is no music in their voices. I imagine, that the essence of their being is slowly dissolved into a cauldron of Bill & Bob heads where they become indistinguishable from one another.
Occasionally a Bill & Bob head will pop up out of the cauldron screaming out; "I've been sober for 20 years but that doesn't mean I've recovered! "I still go to 5 meetings a week and I have a photo of Bill Wilson on my mantlepiece!" "That's what it's all about! Meetings! Meetings! Meetings"! "I study the Big Book because I don't want to drink again...it's cunning, baffling, & powerful.The pop up Bill & Bob head will then disappear back into the cauldron and 13th step a newcomer.
The atmosphere in most AA meetings is suffocating at the least and after a couple of Bill & Bob heads have excreted their verbal diarrhoea, the Steppers start to breathe, not realising that they are breathing in dangerous AA fumes.
