The informal national group conscience we took recently has made itself known. All but two groups voted for dialog with Minnesota, but others who voted yes expressed reservations that we not compromise our alignment with the principles and traditions of AA. Acceptance of “Lust Kills” and “The Problem” was unanimous. Acceptance of the Statement of Principles was unanimous, with some feeling, however, that we should not try to finalize this kind of thing at this point and put it on the “back burner.” By the way, our dialog with the Minnesota sex addicts may not get off the ground anyway; they seem to have backed off, so it’s on “hold” for now.
