Hmmmmm....trying to show everyone the good that has been accomplished even if it was hard at times, asking everyone to put away their hurt feelings then making the suggestion that perhaps the time is ripe for considering coming together as a proper organization...is stirring the pot?...hmmmm...I don't think so....but if you consider all that trouble making...that's fine by me.

What I do know however is that we are all closer to agreeing with each other then we have ever been and it would be nice if all the fighting stopped.

Its funny...we are arguing... but....we agree with each other on the issues of NA and surgery...so...why the fighting? My list was meant to show all the good that has come of this - that's all.

If for some mysterious reason I should wake up one morning and begin to think that NA was problematic, ineffective and maybe even dangerous, and I wanted to hamper this sites effectiveness in informing newbies about NA, here is what I'd consider doing:

I'd start a thread called "This Site is a Scam". Then I'd do my best to stir up as much dissension among posters as possible and keep the words "This Site is a Scam" at the very top of the list. I'd know I couldn't *stop* the NA movement, but perhaps I might slow it down a bit. That's what I'd do if I were the kind of person that devious and desperate. (I'm not saying that is what has happened here, but it might as well have been)

So, for all of us who support NA, I recommend we put our guns down and simply walk away from this thread and see what happens. Sure we'll be called out, baited perhaps. I for one will do my best to resist the temptation to post anything further on this thread for reasons I hope I've made clear.
