Errors of Alcoholics Anonymous: The Floundering Fathers

There are many things that I could wrote about the presumptive (and putative) founders of Alcoholics Anonymous. I am fully aware that I may side-track at times in the indictments which I present about these flounding founders, individuals who evinved no real recovery, who infused Biblical principles without the theme of all Scripture, which is Jesus Christ and Him Crucified.

Bill Wilson and Robert Smith, the cofounders, and co-offenders, who founded AA, were part of the Puritan New England Stock in which the founding religious dissidents who had founded that colony rejected the authority of one perception of God for another, one that was more authoritarian, cruel, uncompromising, yet not on purpose.

These Vermont natives descended from a culture and tradition of human effort leading to supernatural holiness, even though Paul castigated fellow believers in Galatia for thinking that they could be made perfect in the flesh. The Puritanical ancestors of the region tried to evince lies of holiness in order to demonstrate that they were the predestined elect, to prove that they have received the grace of God. Such thinking was as illogical and antithetical as their conformist stance against dissent, despite their dissenter origin against the Established Church of England and the empty tenets of a faith tradition. The greater blasphemy, however, followed when the man suggested to the distraught alcoholic, “Choose your own conception of God!”
 

Where does anyone get the flimsy notion that we can just conjure up our own idea of God? This privatized form of faith is nonsense. God as creator of the Universe cannot be understood; rather, he must be received in accordance with His revelation according to Scripture.

These men were unfit and fussy people who had no life in them. The chronic smoking binge that led Bill W. to succumb to cancer, followed by his final clamoring for alcohol at the end of his life, bear witness to a man who was not set free from drinking. A philanderer who preached adherence to a creed instead of Christ, Bill W. and his "spiritual" program has not brought people into the life that Christ Jesus has promised to all who are willing to believe on Him.
