Billions of years before twelve step groups, God committed shotgun suicide. Today wall scrapings share His gratitude stories.

In 1935, when there were no other programs, the founders of AA, Bill Wilson and Dr. Robert Smith, stepped up to the plate and took action to help a crippled population. All credit for the establishment of their wonderful, life-saving group goes to them and to those who came after them who have continued the tradition. However, there are hundreds of millions of people who still need help who are not among the estimated two or three million who attend twelve-step meetings.

I recovered from recovering so no longer celebrate not doing bad things to defend myself as good. I added new bad for good measure.
