Step one: “We admitted we are powerless over achohol-that our lives had become unmanageable.”

……so we give up our independance, our individualism, our right to think our own thoughts…AA is not open to everyone.
We start parroting the wise cracks of every other AA member…

First things first.
Let go and let God.
Slip=Sobriety Lost Its Priority.

And the one with the hidden pun…

Its a simple program for complicated people.

If alcoholism is to be managed and for that sake cured, then we must come up with better ways to deal with it…publically standing up and admitting we are powerless drunks and addicts wont do. We need to be empowered to find real solutions, for real problems. AA is a tightly managed religious cult. That keeps its robots apathic, with no hope of a real cure. You must have a sponsor, you are not allowed to think your problem out alone. AA is about keeping you down and powerless thinking with the mind of an addict.
AA is about keeping their robots irresponsible, infantile and morose.

We are part of a living, infinite and cyclic universe, powered by a force that creates and maintains atoms, lives and worlds.

IMO, God and the Universe are one and the same. If I am grateful for life than I will try to make this universe more benevolent, bountiful and beautiful because I am part of it.

I agree with most of your premises.

Here is information on the “energy surrounding us” that was forbidden to the public after WWII.

Very interesting discussion between Omanual and Michael.

Let me step in for a moment and give you my thoughts on the matter.

Here are my premises:

FIRST: I believe in no religions whatsoever. In my opinion, all religious books were written and re-written numerous times by men (probably the Elites of that time), to enslave humanity into obedience and division. “Divide and Conquer”.

SECOND: I don’t believe in Darwin’s theory either, because it starts with nothing. Therefore, how can nothing transforms itself into something? It makes no sense to me.

THIRD: Looking at this incredibly beautiful and perfect Universe, I tend to believe that there must have been somewhere, somehow, a Creator of all those things. But then again: Who created the Creator?

So, I’m not sure about anything, really. But I will go with my THIRD premise.

If there is a God or whatever you want to call it, I believe he must have been a good guy to create such beauty and perfect things.
If he created men, he must have created them with all the things they needed to survive: Freedom of thoughts, Self-discipline, liberty of choices, intelligence, imagination, creation skills, will power, etc.

If this is the case, we are on our own. So why invoke him everyday for the wisdom of our choices? Are we free or not? I believe we are free.

So why not just try to discover all the energy surrounding us and try to tap into it to achieve higher goals? I’m quite sure we haven’t discover one third of everything that is available to us in this magnificent Universe.

In 1939 Bill Wilson noted that a steel beam consists only of sub-atomic particles held together by a force.

In 1944, Max Planck said there is no matter as such. The illusion of solid matter is maintained by a force that holds sub-atomic particles together.

Every atom, life and world in the solar system appears to be sustained by an invisible fore from the Sun’s pulsar core.

Thank you, Michael, for repeating an opinion I held myself until 1996:

“The universe is controlled by cause and effect, . . .
except for me!”

That opinion is common among addicts. That is why Chapter 4 of the AA Big Book is entitled “We Agnostics.”

Bullshit. ..the very second you turn control over to an unseen, unproven entity/diety you are finished. You have surrendered your power.
Stop bullshitting yourself with this dark cult. Your are in control…you always have been. You simply just care to delude yourself. And to call your affliction a disease. AA is a crutch…
Have you heard of ayahuasca?

The part in bold has been the hardest part for me to practice.

Jon,

In 1939 Bill Wilson wrote the following advice on what individuals can do to expand their own power to exit from the Matrix:

“On awakening let us think about the twenty-four hours ahead. We consider our plans for the day. Before we begin, we ask God to direct our thinking, especially asking that it be divorced from self-pity, dishonest or self-seeking motives. Under these conditions we can employ our mental faculties with assurance, for after all God gave us brains to use. Our thought-life will be placed on a much higher plane when our thinking is cleared of wrong motives.”

“In thinking about our day we may face indecision. We may not be able to determine which course to take. Here we ask God for inspiration, an intuitive thought, or a decision. We relax and take it easy. We don’t struggle. We are often surprised how the right answers come after we have tried this for a while. What used to be the hunch or the occasional inspiration gradually becomes a working part of the mind.”
– Bill Wilson, 1939
