The people who get clean with AA go through a weird transformation
Yes, Ive noticed this and they're not enjoyable to be around any longer. Its like they try and convert you, like a born again tries too, they seem to think that everyone has the same problem or it does seem like a cult now that you mention it. I would go to a medical treatment center before I would put my faith in the wackos from AA!
There are literally tens of millions of 'functioning' alcoholics around the world who hold down jobs and are outwardly successfu
I totally agree, especially construction guys. I really dont see anything wrong if they want to have a couple of beers at lunch on a hot summer.
Im more against AA and what they do to peoples minds. Ive had calls from ppl out of the blue apologizing for sth they did to me over 5 years ago, its just plan silly and dont want to deal with them. That dude who drinks in the shower, he likes it and doesnt bother anyone either:)
Probably, although I've never heard about religious indoctrination at A.A. before.
A couple of guys have told me this and that why they quit going, said they were better off drinking instead.
It could be an American AA situation
Ya know, all this talk has got me thirsty and I have 2 Ice cold zywiec in the fridge. I guess, I wont be going to AA tonight! LOL
