I don't have the 4th edition... My copy is a little older(3rd edition),
even so, what's the big XXXXing deal ? What does being gay have to do
with getting sober, and working the 12 steps ?
So, with your bias against gays, you're not going to be satisfied until
AA turns them away because of their lifestyle ? If this is true, you're
trying to play God... Can't you just put all of that shit aside ? Why do
you even care ?
To put your bias in perspective, it's like refusing to buy a washing
machine from a store with a great reputation for service, and customer
satisfaction because the salesperson was gay...
Ted, I'm serious, and I'm not XXXXing with you... You really should talk
to somebody neutral, neither an AA, or a Conservative Christian, and ask
them if they believe you have a healthy outlook on this AA / Gay thing. I
think you'll be surprised at what you hear coming back at you.
