It is<br>hard to see how you can embrace any one of those<br>without tolerance. The essence of the programme is<br>tolerance and a first timer at a meeting who listens<br>to the preamble would appreciate that. We know the<br>dangers of judging others and we have seen how<br>rules and dogma lead to argument and<br>enforcement.

Well,<br>perhaps there are times when I should do so,<br>otherwise society might become chaotic. On the<br>other hand, I am not without fault.

Understanding other<br>people is more important than judging them. With<br>understanding, I will find the good in people not<br>the bad.
