Why is it that I find very few people of Jewish heritage at 12-step
meetings, particularly AA? Why is it there are NEVER (and I mean never)
meetings at a Jewish place of worship? Why is it that 12-step meetings are
always held in a Christian church basement (or Christian related place)? Now
we all know that Irish Roman Catholic priests love to "sip sip sip" the
bottle and recognizable by their "beet red, big nose" faces and certain
winners of "W.C. Fields look alike contests". But there must be at least a
rabbi or two out there that slam the wine once too often and would gladly
invite their AA group meeting into the temple basement for a change.

So, getting back to the question at hand, HOW COME WE HARDLY SEE JEWS ATTEND
12-STEP MEETINGS? Is it because Jews don't drink, do drugs, or gamble??

Or... is it because people of Jewish heritage DO NOT SURRENDER. Their
heritage has taught them NEVER TO SURRENDER, to ANY GROUP, especially those
whose principles are BASED ON FEAR. Just look back at their history, from
the Egyptians to the Holocaust. I see a connection with my theory.

And I say this as being complimentary to those people of Jewish heritage. I
commend anyone who refuses to surrender to fear.

OK now 12-steppers, let's here what you have to say about this. I find this
topic very interesting. C'mon now, I want to hear from any rabbis out there
too!
