AA doesn’t care what your sexual persuasion - only that you are an alcoholic and want to stop drinking.

Thanks for that.

Absolutely. I have been a grateful member for 16+ years.

AA, as an organization, encourages the homosexual lifestyle by its many Gay meetings. It also encourages it by casting homosexualty in a favorable light thru its written literature.

Don't tell me it isn't so. I have 40 years experience and know better.

And it does so in violation of its own traditions.

AA is not allied with any sect, denomination, politics, organization or institution; does not wish to engage in any controversy; neither endorses nor opposes any causes. Our primary purpose is to stay sober and help other alcoholics to achieve sobriety.

AA’s primary purpose is to members from drinking. Currently gay meetings are held separate from the main group. Their meetings are identified as gay meetings and often times closed to others. There are Christian meetings as well.

AA doesn’t endorse other groups and so far there isn’t a gay agenda at the open meetings.

Gays have lots of problems, and they appear to be much more prone to substance abuse. AA is the best thing for keeping sober and gays benefit from the program like everybody else.

The only concern is that gays will become more vocal and turn the entire organization into a gay support group. They could destroy AA as easily as they have destroyed other institutions such as the Catholic Church, marriage and soon the Boy Scouts.

I thought this was a story about American Airlines and fags.
As a frequent flyer,
I’ve seen way more of that than I ever wanted to see,
Some may have been gay, and that’s fine I never knew it. But the swish-lyric talking, color coordinated queens really make the trip miserable.
Oh, crap I have another trip to make next week;-(
