Guest guest Posted August 14, 2001 Report Share Posted August 14, 2001 wow netty, I think you finally put to rest my inner debate about religion vs. spiritual. If I may, may I use your story/analogy when I write all my letters to PO's, judges, congresspeople etc.? Nothing states it better for me, nor shows how stupid the " spiritual not religious " arguement is when trying to defend how a government agent like a PO or judge can force someone to attend AA. All the AA literature supports what this guy was saying to PRIESTS for crying out loud. wow, so simple and concise. I love it. (works for me anyways, thank you) lisak > > This post also reminded me of the Catholic priest's - the 'alkie' > ones - they would be bussed to the 'club' for aa meeting.

(study) > With spirituality - you learn to 'know god'. ( the personal > relationship stuff, but didn't say that) > They bought it too. That helps me not feel so stupid. > netty > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
