I was just on my myspace page this morning, and, because I note on my page that I am in recovery, I got following advertisement:
AA is a dangerous cult.
I have to say that my first reaction was pretty negative, and that I should do something about this. Then, I remembered that we in AA don't claim a monopoly on recovery. We don't claim that AA is for everybody and we don't say it's the only way to stop drinking. In fact, our literature suggests that we take the opposite attitude in regards to other successes:
"If anyone who is showing inability to control his drinking can do the right about face and drink like a gentleman, our hats are off to him."
So, if rational recovery works for you, good on ya. If it doesn't work for you, we've got something you might want to try.
Peace.

Don't meet with drunks or junkies. Break free. Learn AVRT® and quit.
