As a followup to last week's post, your theme is as old as history itself. Modern science confirms it, but still we are reluctant to change.

In A.A. we are taught that we first have to willing, then we have to believe we can change, then we have to make a decision to change and, last, we have to follow up the decision with action. Any problem in life can be approached this way and this solution is not unique to the A.A. program (which is a synthesis of may ideas from different spheres). What is it in our DNA or mind that blocks us from taking positive action for ourself.

An article in this morning's paper reported on the Pope's address emphasizing that in the age of modern science it is harder to adhere to Christainity. Perhaps that is a factor, but as I suggested, the problem, if we read our history, goes back and beyond modern science.
