AA helped me stop drinking. Bottom line.

I'll never understand AA haters. If you don't like it, don't go. If you got a DUI and got forced to go, don't complain. You did the crime. Sitting in a meeting for one hour is a pretty light sentence if you ask me.

YOU ARE JUST TRY TO SEE HOW YOU CAN MAKE ANOTHER BUCK ; LIFE IS MUCH MORE THAN THE STUFF COMMING OUT OF YOUR MOUTH

@ndrthrdr1 Can you please show me the numbers that support your claim

[curio1020]

In the words of Mark Twain "Better to keep your mouth shut and let people assume you're a fool than to open it and remove all doubts" People should really not try to speak intellegently about something they know nothing about. AA has helped countless people quit drinking.Keep in mind that Penn and Teller are ENTERTAINERS. They are not doctors, phycologists or anything but entertainers who are not quallified to speak on alcoholism.

@TheoBurke I do want to help people with their drinking problems. The way to do that is to pass on first-hand experience on methods that actually work.

SMARTRecovery and SOS both have higher success rates for people who aren't religious.

For those who are religious, if prayer actually solved the problem, they'd already have solved the problem.

AA has a higher suicide rate and higher dropout rate.

@ndrthrdr1 What was your last post if not hateful and spiteful? You've taken to calling me names, like "troll" and "cult member". This is not the tone of some one who wants to help others with their drinking problem. Your rants sound increasingly fueld by an agenda other than a coherent critique of AA. I wish you well.

[ndrthrdr1]

@TheoBurke Spoken like a true cult member. You troll these videos making ridiculous comments.

Happy, joyous and free?

Your comments and inane assertions that I'm hateful and spiteful show that you aren't happy, joyous OR free. That's typical of the cult.

[TheoBurke]

@ndrthrdr1 Like I said , you're angry , hateful and full of spite. Enjoy the bile you've chosen to wallow in.

[ndrthrdr1]

@TheoBurke Your delusional thinking is showing.

I say "I found a better way, from personal experience, and I want to help others."

You say "You are speaking here in anger, bordering on outright hate."

You are defending a cult that indoctrinates people into thinking that they are helpless without supernatural powers and need the cult. You sound like you are too far gone for now to consider the fact that AA was started with Oxford Group fanatical fundamentalism.

I hope everyone finds success.

[TheoBurke]

@ndrthrdr1 You are speaking here in anger, bordering on outright hate. It's pretty obvious. I am dubious of people who cite various statistics about rates of recovery about any of these programs since the task of tracking your study groups over a sufficient length of time is problematic; medical professionals I know who do this kind of research for a living make no bones about it and warn to take the numbers,yay or nay about success or failure, with a right amount of skepticism.
