The Beginning

[jamesianv]

Have we defeated evil?

[tami4497]

Thank God for AA:) And thank God that Bill was an imperfect human being. Him and Dr bob have left the world a wonderful program. A program that has saved so many more than just alcoholics...but loved ones of alcoholics, from a life of hell. My little girls have never had to see me drunk. And for that, I am grateful. Thank God.

So happy that b/c of ppl like Orange we know what AA REALLY is all about.

[passionitliberal]

Yeah a real narcissist Bill was. Poor man, speaking with ghosts....I hope that at least now he is at peace.

[dooganish]

a.a needs people like orange papers so we can appreciate what we have,resenting them is like drinking poison hoping the other guy gets sick.... mckenna@yahoo.com

[big500guy]

Nobody in AA in their right mind worships Bill or any other person. He was just a guy. But he was the carrier of a message a lot of people benefitted from. He was another drunk trying to save his ass, and just like the rest he was made of good and bad.

[Alex00764]

orange papers . com now thats some real good truth...

[tomhabs]

@Alex00764 It is not the truth just some more propaganda trying to make AA look bad. Any body with half a brain can see right through it. I would love to meet with Mr. Orange Papers and discuss the merits of AA. I am so glad you think that "thats some good truth"

[Alex00764]

Jesus leads you to a deliverance a complete freedom and if Bill was so awesome he lead a nicotine-caffeine-woman chasing extramartial affairs even left her 10 percent of the royalities of aa. plus his white light exp. was a belldome cure=LSD baby. We could all claim seeing God trippin.. You are not to worship idols.

[ndrthrdr1]

@Alex00764 I've used LSD, and I "saw" things too. When the effects of the drug wore off, however, I knew that I had been hallucinating.

Doug, I wish you would disable the comments on these vids. Please dont give these assholes a venue. Thanks very much for posting these, I wish they had been experienced without the shitcloud these idiots have tagged them with.

[danboy524]

To alex00764, spirualpornagraphy, godlyguitarmann, and picarro, all 4 of you are just little boys, whimps, of which with your tiny collective brains do not have the capacity to understand just who Bill W was and just what he accomplished for God and this society. The digital age has unfortunately allowed for tiny mindless creeps like you 4 to access and disgrace areas of which many others deem sacrilegious. Now go to your room all 4 of you before your mommies find out you're still up,whimps!

[1954bigmike]

I see the negative self talk and also indescribable of what you people do say things of negative to what this A.A. program started well not only alcoholics anonymous was formed there are well over a numerous other different groups have been formed and it is all self help and you make the decision if you want it so the 12 steps by far is the greatest ever to learn and listen with an open mind I am also A.A. and N.A. member and both programs saved my life.

[thomo74]

If you think it is a cult why do you watch it. You must live in fear, that is why you are so hostile.

[spiritualpornography]

Easy on the Jung connections AAers, his lifes works are the antitheseis of AA's rigid, narrow minded, collectivist ways. Jung was a great man. Bill W was a fucking dick head.

[lucypunch]

The people who criticize him probably have some major problems of their own and do not know about the great minds that produced Bill Wilson (Alfred Adler, Carl Jung, Sigmund Freud).

[Alex00764]

AA is a cult !!!! Wake up MF this is 2010 who carse anything about ancient history of a drunk man?

[norfolkyngvie]

@Alex00764

Lol at you, buddy. Millions of hopeless drunks are no longer hopeless drunks. Millions. What the eff do you, personally, do for anybody? Let's put your life on display and see how qualified you are to offer an opinion on just about anything. let alone something as significant to the Human Story as the founding of AA. You and the others like you should have your keyboards taken away, so you can stop shitting on other people's interests, you are nothing but cowards and shut-ins.

[Picaro1]

Who the fuck is this guy, some sort of alcoholic expert. He is so full of shit a doctor could see it a mile away, hell, sorry 5 feel away.

[juniormcfadden]

@Picaro1

Detox, man. You're hostile because you are anti-spiritual

[afieder]

What are these obvious reasons we do not use the word conversion? 5:00 to 5:10

Just curious for responses because without my conversion, I would not have considered A.A. as a design for living.

[1jimcox]

Early AA history, presented by Bill Wilson.

[SaysSandra]

I absolutely love these historic recordings. I hope that newcomers will take to heart the wise words of those who came before and laid the foundation for fellowship in AA.

Thank you

[BOWLING101A]

I to thank you for this posting and some pictures to go with the stories

[jonslaterhome]

[terriu1]

I needed to listen to this several times, the recording is hard to understand in the first time through. Thanks for the history!!!

@Hammersley1967 Site your source please.

[sunnybrett]

the sound is very very low . . . is it my PC problem or is it the Video?

[Wiknwillow]

I will be sending this to my sponsee's who have internet access. The history of not only AA, but the Oxford Group and photo's of these people who were to me have until now been names on pages is inspiring. I think it is important to know how things began, and I try to get others interested in the early beginnings of AA. Thumbs UP!

[clintcollier]

I need my fists and boots! This is about 80% fists, 10% boots and 10% fillers. Half-measures availed us nothing! Fists & Boots --> Boots & Fists.

[quickcap]

Do you put on the boots for sheep sex? Then what? Do you fist 'em? You should have more consideration for the sheep. The sheep would rather have a warm weenie than a cold fist.

[tzvikiyehudi]

Thanks so much for posting. I really needed this tonight.

[quickcap]

Thanks for posting!
