observe
the
spirit
of
A.A.
tradition
,
taking
care
that it
never
becomes
the
seat
of
perilous

of
unqualified
authority
over others; that it
reach
all
important
decisions
by
discussion

, and,

possible
, by

unanimity
; that
its
actions
never
be
personally

nor an
incitement
to
public
controversy
; that it

acts
of
government
, and that, like the
Society
it
serves
, it will always
remain
democratic
in
thought
and
action
.
