And Andy, that sentence is WSC approved.



That line is in the reading "How it Works".. you're telling me the reading done before every meeting around the world isn't WSC approved?

And being clean is what you want it to be. People don't take any pills (asparin included) or medicine of any kind because that's what being clean is to them. Some people have terminal illness and use pain killers, and consider themselves clean. Only their HP can judge them, not you or me.
All because of you
I believe in angels.
Not the kind with wings,
no, not the kind with halos;
the kind that bring you home
when Love becomes a strange place.
I'll follow your voice;
all you have to do is
shout it out!

The "WSC approved" is somewhat of a trick question/comment. However there is some truth to it. I'll give you a clue, what does "WSC" mean, what is the process of literature approval?

I like what you said about judging others, to me only HP could then judge the alcoholic/addict too huh?
