Humility is an ever present topic in AA, which I'll note is a Christian organization despite what anyone in it wants to argue.

Yes, humility is great and necessary. But this whole discussion is about a balancing act between how you want to act and how you want to be perceived and what amount of compromise you're willing to accept because you can't control the perception of everyone. If you always defer potential conflict to seem humble because of your conception of God then you can end up rendering to Caesar the right to be a tyrant. Or accepting bad behavior by your fellowship because God's plan, free will, we're all sinners
