THE ORANGE PAPERS --One Man's Analysis of Alcoholics Anonymous

the Orange papers tells you everything you ever wanted to know about the cult of powerlessness but were afraid to ask (or see) the Emperor has no clothes. AA kills.

Eye-opening site showing how AA is really a cult.

Getting people in a vulnurable state to believe in imaginary creatures like god doesn't sound very Jesus-like to me.

interesting resource on A A from a skeptic's pov there are some claims that need looking into from the pov of how it is supposed to work that's an entirely different story

I do not want to dismiss anyone's success in kicking alcohol. Being a former alcoholic, I am quite familiar with the battle and when victory is achieved, well, for me words just can't describe. So if you did it through AA, great! I personally accomplished it by accepting responsibility for my choices, nutrition, getting the chemistry in my brain under control, but most of all I asked God for help and trusted him. I tried AA, and it did not sit right with me, nor did it work for me. I felt I was joining a cult. Further, this repetitious reminding of one's self of being an alcoholic, lacking willpower, and constantly rehashing the past is a recipe to resume drinking, at least in my opinion. It was my falling victim to guilt that kept me in the cycle. I still have guilt, but I also have my self-esteem now. It seems to me that AA is just trading in one addiction for another. Drinking is a choice. AA would have me believe that, when it comes to alcohol, I have no will power, no power over the choices I make, that I have a life-long disease (a crutch), that I must remind myself over and over what a rotten person I was when I drank, and that AA is the only path, "the way, the truth, and the life" to enjoy a sober life. Well I can tell you that, after two years and running, it's not. God wants us to depend on him, but he also wants us to do so with strong hearts!

The only medical treatment for a medically diagnosed disease is a meeting that acknowledges God's role, and not medicine's, in healing you. hmm...

While I don't agree with all of Agent Oranges ideas, it certainly presents the opposing view of AA doctrine..:)
