I'm not very computer literate so someone please help me if you can. I signed up for the 12 Step Free Zone website to log onto their web page, but I can't seem to access the page!I don't want to get all sorts of e-mails, I just want to read what others are up to. I hope this makes sense to someone. I guess I should have posted this under the open forum, but it's 4 in the morning and I don't want to start over. Also, what does it mean when you post LOL on your responses here? I've been unable to figure this one out. Thanks, Angie

Amy,
LOL means laugh out loud, I'll check into the rest later today if nobody else gets back to you.

Why did they make it 12 steps anyway? Why not 13? or 144? I don't trust anybody who arbitrarily invents a number 12 and then all the doctors, nurses, lawyers, judges and any other idiot with a hair up his butt is now blathering endlessly about 12 step programs. RR is the 1 step program. And your sponsor is your brain.

But now that you signed up for that thing, I hope they don't come knocking on your door trying to sell you magazines.

Snake --

"Twelve"

Biblically, the number twelve represents completeness of The Group: twelve tribes of Israel, twelve disciples, etc. (Seven is individual completeness -- days of creation, deadly sins . . .)

I expect that AA's Founding Fathers made the conscious connection, but it's possible that the symbolism was so ingrained that they missed it.

Cheers.
