The Non-Arbiter

Arbiter:  A person appointed, or chosen, by parties to determine a controversy between them.

I'm no arbiter of anyone's personal decisions.

Jesus Nut: The assembly that holds the propeller to the body of a helicopter as coined by pilots during the Vietnam War.  Because if the Jesus Nut was damaged all you could really do is scream "Jesus!"

I was the meeting leader this morning so I chose to read the appendix in The Big Book called The Spiritual Experience.  It does such a great job of explaining that the linchpin, the cornerstone, the Jesus nut, of The Fellowship is finding a Higher Power while making sure we understand that this is about personal spirituality, that we don't follow any organized dogma or religion.
