Alcoholics Anonymous is a Religion

Chewbaccus, my comments, yes, were snide. And they are directly related to my own personal experience with AA.

If it works for you, great.

However, in my line of work, I've seen events that make me think people don't understand that AA only works for those who want it to work.

I had a case where a father of three got plastered, shot his wife in the face with a 12 gauge, and then proceeded to butcher the corpse to consume it. When the kids came home from school, he slit their throats.

At the trial, this "pillar of society" claimed "temporary insanity due to overuse of intoxicants". The softhearted judge gave him 5 years of AA.

This fuck is walking the streets and having a good old time.

So excuse me if I take a dim view of AA.
As I said, if it works for you, great.
More power to you.

I have no knowledge of the events which you are describing, and if I did have knowledge of them, I would be unable to discuss them with you now or at any future period. Don't waste your time always searching for those wasted years
