DICK B - FALSE PROPHET

Interview with Dick B:
Kathy: How would you describe to someone reading this interview the difference between the disease of alcoholism and what they could have – hope, that is?

Dick B: I have sponsored about 80 or so guys in AA. After a few years they don’t say, "Is this all there is?" Instead they say, "This isn’t all there is!" And that message means everything! I knew a young man who was about 24 years old and in the army. He had screwed up his life, and after a year sober he said, "Dick I owe everything to you." I told him, "No, you owe everything to God. The world is your oyster.

Start cracking it open and looking for the pearl." What you can offer people is unlimited, and sometimes we sell short what is available to us right now – health, forgiveness, avoidance of shame, guilt, and despair. Fourteen years ago I wanted to kill myself. That is not unusual with this disease. I didn’t see that there was anything else.

I didn’t have a drink for five months but I was just afloat in a bunch of AA meetings, sicker than a dog, shaking like a leaf, wetting my pants and facing all kinds of criminal charges, and so forth. I read a little book, The Bible Tells Me So, and it said prisons are not made of steel alone. There are anxieties, frustrations, fears and secrets that mess with a person and keep him from God.

Yet AA can offer people hope. They can be relieved of the guilt and the shame and the physical infirmities. God delivered me through AA. My life was a mess. Where I am today is in a lot different position. I’ve grown closer to my family. I’m nuts about my two sons, two granddaughters and life. That’s what you have to talk to people about – the hope of change. In the beginning it is a strict regimen – don’t drink and go to meetings until your minds clear a little.

But the quicker a drunk is introduced to God, as they then understand Him, the better. One of the nicest things about AA is at the end of every meeting you hold hands and you recite the Lord’s Prayer. At the end of that you say, "Keep coming back. It works." And it does. For a while all you can do is just hang on to the "It works." My sponsor used to look at me and smile. And I would think, "I guess it does." That’s the message. And it’s a good one.

Kathy: I wish my Dad could have talked to you for he was struggling in the last few years of his life.

Dick: Well, there is no denying the devastation that alcoholism causes to the individual and the family. The Lowe Family Foundation’s focus is on the family, which is one place where renewal does happen when AA works right. Part of the redemptive process is making amends to those people you love.

It may produce no fruit in them, but it will produce fruit for you. And my own view is that if you work at it a long time, it will produce fruit for your family, too. And if it doesn’t, that’s not your problem. It is God’s problem and He can solve it. He can solve all your problems. AA’s medicine is God and God alone. "Each day should be a day of high adventure.

I must keep spiritually fit in order to be responsive, sensitive, alert, and aware of the significance of every act… I cannot do this unless I "wait on God" and seek humbly and confidently to ascertain His will in my life. He does speak to those who listen. ‘In all thy ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct thy paths.’"*

*(Turning Point, A History of AA’s Spiritual Roots and Successes, by Dick B., page 298, quote from Brown, The Venture of Belief, and page 40)


PATRICK’S RESPONSE
Dick, I imagine you to be an emotionally shutdown, shape-shifting reptile who has sold his soul to the Devil. You are leading others’ onto the wrong path with your moronic ramblings about the history of AA, God, The Bible, Wilson, and Smith et al.


You haven’t once mentioned Jesus Christ in your “meaningless diatribe.” AA is a prison (HELL) for lost souls like you. You are a terrified “little boy,” who is too petrified to face his demons. How have you recovered, Dicky? What have you recovered, Richard? You are a classic "control freak,” Dicky? Satan is a CLASSIC "control freak”, too!!

How do you feel, Dicky?


I, PATRICK, AM THE HOLY ONE OF GOD.
 
TWELVE STEPS AWAY FROM CHRIST

Mr. Bill Wilson, founder of Alcoholics Anonymous (A.A.) and creator of the twelve-step program. Mr. Wilson was heavily influenced by demons. Chapter sixteen (p. 275f) of 'Pass It On' The Story of Bill Wilson and how the A.A.
message reached the world records.

Mr. Wilson's use of the ouija board, participation in séances, psychic events, "spook sessions", table levitation, and how he would receive "messages" from "discarnate" spirits.

Bill Wilson was clearly in contact with demons, and this is the man who created the deceptive twelve-step program.

Make a decision to turn our will and our lives over to the care of God, as we understood Him. (Step #11. Emphasis added.) The last part of this statement ("as we understood Him") is enough to damn your soul! God says, Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding. (Proverbs 3:5).


This is the exact opposite of "God as we understood Him." All men, according to Romans 1:18-32, are condemned before God, because they rely upon their own understanding (Romans 1:21; Ephesians 4:18, "having their understanding darkened"), and they create (in their own darkened minds) a god of their own making (Romans 1:23).

To encourage people to turn their "lives over to the care of God as we understood Him", is to encourage people to "turn their lives over to a god of their own making" (i.e. according to their own understanding).


This promotes nothing more than spiritual death (Revelation 22:15). In addition, these twelve steps are a deceitful attack against the saving work of the Lord Jesus Christ (i.e. they are against Christ, antichrist, 2 John 7; Colossians 2:8-10).


The twelve steps are (as Mr. Wilson used them) given as an answer (a way) in which one can overcome sin (with Mr. Wilson's case, the sin of drunkenness).


Jesus Christ is the ONLY answer for sin. He is the only way (John 14:6). There is only ONE "step", and that is faith in the Saviour (Ephesians 2:8/Matthew1:21/John 8:36/Romans10: 13!


The above exemplifies the "twelve steps" are what are used to "become free from addictive, compulsive" behaviour (i.e. sin). In other words, the twelve steps are the saviour! No doubt it is deceptive, because "Biblical principles" are interwoven throughout; but if they weren't, few (if any) would be deceived.


One good question to ask would be, "Where does Scripture talk about any 'twelve steps'"? The answer? Nowhere!

These twelve steps come from Satan (via Bill Wilson), who is the master deceiver (Revelation 12:9). Remember, Satan used Scripture to tempt Christ (Matthew 4:6), and Balaam spoke much truth (Numbers 23-24); but he was a false prophet (2 Peter 2:15-16/Numbers 22).


In Matthew 7:13-14 Jesus warned, Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it. Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it.


Jesus likewise warned in Luke 13:24, Strive to enter through the narrow gate, for many, I say to you, will seek to enter and will not be able.

I, PATRICK, AM THE TRUTH & BEAUTY THAT SURROUNDS THE LORD.

2.
on Page 189:

5.
on Page 240:

on Page 298:
“… BILL W. But as with the mysterious ingredient that he knew was … the verge of grasping a message or moving into some higher state of consciousness , he had never talked about it; … years he went on following, trying to understand, a mysterious power he sensed was there, a part of his concept of anonymity. Though he could not quite comprehend its meaning, he …”


8.
on Page 324:
“… BILL W. what has been his fate. Our conversation which he has … when you walk on a path which leads you to higher understanding. You might be led to that goal by an … action from above and isolated in society, cannot resist the power of evil, which is called very aptly the Devil. But the use of such words arouses so many mistakes that …”

1. on Page 193:
“… some-for the old, the hopeless, for those who had passed beyond loving, beyond any hope of really living, but, by Christ, he was different. It might be the last arrogant gasp of alcoholic pride but, miserable and terrified as he was, …”


MATTHEW 23:15 "Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You travel over land and sea to win a single convert, and when he becomes one, you make him twice as much a son of hell as you are.

AA PUSSIES!!
I don't attend AA meetings anymore -- thank God. I imagine leaving AA becomes more difficult the longer one has been exposed to this evil, soul-destroying cult. I read with some sadness of an AA ZOMBIE who wanted to leave but found it difficult because AA was his whole life.

One becomes trapped & I imagine most AA ZOMBIES feel safe albeit quite isolated from the real world. I imagine most AA ZOMBIES don’t have the guts to quit(AA)?


My process (REDEMPTION) started in 1994 (therapy, etc) but it took me many years to make a complete break from all 12 Step programs (I was also going to SLAA, CODA, ACOA).

I imagine most “alcoholics” are terrified of intimacy (emotional cowards) & attending12 Step programs are the ultimate escape (from intimacy), because of the indoctrination ("If you quit AA -- You will drink").

I would suggest that quite a few of the AA ZOMBIES are "pussies" because they won’t face life "full on" without the "crutch" of 12 Step programs.


I, PATRICK, AM THE LORD’S LIGHT & SALVATION FOR OTHER PEOPLE.
 
HOW IT JERKS
Rarely have we seen a person fail who thoroughly filled their bath. Those who are not BRAINWASHED are people who cannot or will not completely give themselves to this UTTER GARBAGE, usually men and women who are constitutionally capable of thinking for themselves. There are such fortunates.


They are not at fault; they seem to have been born premature. They are naturally capable of building and developing muscles, which demands rigorous training. Their chances are 6/4 on.




There are those, too, who are gravediggers and undertakers, but many of them do become ZOMBIES if they have the capacity to be dishonest. Our stories disclose in a twisted way, who we like, what happened, and who we hate now. If you have decided you want a cup of tea and are willing to go to any lengths to become emotionally shutdown, SHAPE SHIFTING REPTILES - then you are ready to take certain steps. At some of these we balked, we thought we could find someone to 13th STEP.


And we realised, we could. With all the madness at our command, we beg of you to become BILL WILSON CLONES - from the very start. Some of us have tried to hold on to our BIG BOOKS and the result was nil until we let go of our SPONSORS. Remember that we deal with alcohol, frothy, bubbly, and powerful! Without help it is too much for us. But there is one who has all power that one is the BARMAN. May you find Him now!



Half measures availed us nothing. We stood at the bar. We asked the BARMAN for a couple of stiff vodka's. Here are the steps we took, which are suggested as a program to INSANITY:



1.We admitted we were powerless over Coca - Cola, and decided to drink Pepsi, instead.


2.Came to believe that Cold Power was a detergent.


3.Made a decision to turn our heads when we saw an attractive blonde.


4.Did a body search of the new members.


5.Admitted to our DOG, to elves, and to another super being the exact nature of our songs.


6.Were entirely ready to have SUPERMAN remove the effects of kryptonite.


7.Humbly asked CLARK KENT to remove our brains.


8.Made a list of all persons who owed us money, and became willing to charge them interest.


9.Made direct hits wherever possible, except when someone moved the target.


10.Continued to talk crap and when we were wrong, promptly talked more crap.


11.Sought through our mail and computer to improve our conscious contact with BATMAN, as we understood him, praying only for knowledge of ROBIN and the return of SPIDERMAN.


12.Having had a stroke as the result of these steps, we tried to carry out the garbage, and fell flat on our backs.


Many of us exclaimed, "What an order! I can't go through with it." Do not be discouraged. No one among us has been able to maintain their homes and 13th Step the newcomers, at the same time. We are not psychopaths. The point is, that we are willing to become psychotic. The principles we have set down are guides to psychosis. We claim that BILL WILSON WAS A PSYCHOPATH.


Our description of the landscape, the chapter to the gnostic, and our family photos before and after make clear three pertinent ideas:


(a) That we were ugly and could not manage our own appearance.


(b) That probably no photographer could have improved our looks.


(c) That a PLASTIC SURGEON could and would if he were sought.


HA! HA! HA! HA! HA! HA! HA! HA! HA! HA! HA! HA! HA! HA! HA! HA! HA! HA! HA! HA! HA! HA! HA! HA! HA! HA! HA! HA! HA! HA! HA! HA!


I, PATRICK, AM A GIFT TO ALL PEOPLE.
 
HEY BOB!

BILL:]

AA means planning a life for two
Being together the whole day through
True SOBRIETY means waiting and hoping that soon
SATANISM will come true
My love, my love


I, PATRICK, AM A GIFT TO ALL PEOPLE
 
SOUND OF SOBRIETY

Hllo! DARKNESS, my old friend
I’ve come to talk crap again,
An AA meeting softly creeping,
Left its seeds while I was sleeping,
And the 12 STEPS that were planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of sobriety.



In restless meetings I walked alone
Bill Wilson Clones, made
Beneath the "halo" of an OLD TIMER,
I turned my collar to the 1st and 3rd Step
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of
A SPIRITUAL AWAKENING
That split the night
And touched the sound of sobriety.



And in the naked light I saw
A million ZOMBIES maybe more.
ZOMBIES reading the BIG BOOK,
ZOMBIES hearing without listening,
ZOMBIES writing their 4th STEP
And no one dared
Disturb the sound of sobriety.


ZOMBIES said I, you do not know
SOBRIETY like a cancer grows.
Hear my words that I might BRAINWASH you,
Take my arms that I might 13th Step you.
But my words like the higher power fell,
And echoed
In the halls of sobriety.



And the ZOMBIES ranted and raved
To the AA god they made.
And the sign flashed out its warning,
In the words that it was forming.
And the sign said, KEEP COMING BACK
IT WORKS IF YOU WORK IT
And the 12 STEP ZOMBIES
Whispered in the sound of sobriety.


I, PATRICK, AM ONE OF GOD’S MARVELOUS DEEDS THAT MAKES IT KNOWN TO ALL THE NATIONS.
 
HE 12 STEPS DOWN TO HELL
I imagine 12 Step recovery programs are a slow slide into the jaws of Satan. I was involved with the evil “satanic cult” [AA] for over 30 years but was saved through the power of Jesus Christ. He directed me to a therapist who was into “real” recovery, not the mind destroying, soul destroying, cult, which is AA. I have met two ZOMBIES recently & I imagine they are completely devoid of any emotion or insight.


I feel pain because both these men are decent human beings but AA has destroyed their BRAIN STRUCTURE & they have no idea how to relate apart from expounding AA propaganda. I imagine HELL to be a continuous flow of AA meetings without any light at the end of the tunnel because one is never REDEEMED. I beg you ZOMBIES who are in 12 Step programs, to get out before it is too late.



How does one recover when one is handing one’s power over to SATAN (AA)? The 12 Steps were written out of “Wilson’s head,” he certainly didn’t get his guidance from the BIBLE. I imagine he was an agent of Satan & he & Smith’s “cult religion” has filled millions of ZOMBIES with their anti - Christ propaganda.



Step Three of AA is "Made a decision to turn our will and our lives over to the care of God as we understood him." While many in the Oxford Group placed their faith in Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour, there was much leeway given. Shoemaker, a leader of the Oxford Group, says, "The true meaning of faith is self-surrender to God." He further explains:
Surrender to whatever you know about Him, or believe must be the truth about Him. Surrender to Him, if necessary, in total ignorance of Him. Far more important that you touch Him than that you understand Him at first. Put yourself in His hands. Whatever He is, as William James said, He is more ideal than we are. Make the leap. Give yourself to Him.
Aside from capitalizing the "H," which Christians do to refer to the God of the Bible, "Him" could refer to any god of one’s own making [BEDPAN].



Can you see what is happening to you? Ask JESUS to take control of your lives, read the Bible & instead of 12 Step groups, go to Church. Burn your Big Book or use it as toilet paper. Can you see the difference: With The 12 Steps, you are never REDEEMED, but with John 3:16 you are guaranteed Eternal Salvation. The “ball is in your court?”


I, PATRICK, AM THE TRUTH & BEAUTY THAT SURROUNDS THE LORD.
