"Bill Wilson often said: A.A. was not invented. He added: Each of A.A.’s spiritual principles was borrowed from ancient sources. Regrettably, he provided very few specifics as to those A.A. sources, or how they reached the A.A. fellowship.
Today, we can supply specific details. They have been gathered over a period of ten years from archives, interviews, historians, and the study of much literature. Those who did the A.A. borrowing and fashioning were A.A.’s founders, Bill W. and Dr. Bob. But one historical fact has been commonly lacking in discussions of the contributions of these two men. Their sources, spiritual infusions, and beliefs were totally different. Bill was a self-proclaimed "conservative atheist," had never belonged to a church, and never studied the Bible until after he met Dr. Bob in Akron. Dr. Bob, on the other hand, was a longtime Christian believer, church member, and Bible student. And most histories ignore these differences and their A.A. impact. ..." link here |
