One of the tactics of the apologetic Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) faith is to claim that someone is not an Alcoholic or Addict and has no knowledge or ability to even speak about the rehabilitative (or lack of) qualities of Bill Wilson inspired Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) chanting and confessional rituals and ceremonies because of this. Oftentimes these same people base "facts" about AA on these same non-alcoholic "trustees" of the AA faith and call them "Friends of Alcoholics Anonymous."

The "Big Book" of Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) has for nearly eight decades been used by untrained and non-professional cult members of AA to talk people into self diagnosing themselves as an "Alcoholic." The current Diagnostic Statistical Manual, fourth edition, third revision (DSM-IV-TR) does not use the term "Alcoholic" but instead uses the alcohol related codes of 303.90 Dependence or 305.00 Abuse. Normally the progression goes from Abuse to Dependence with the layman's normal term of "Alcoholic" assigned to people coded with 303.90 Dependence.

My guess is that Alcoholics Anonymous in Georgia is pretty organized......

In a backlash from what appears to be a member of Alcoholics Anonymous in General Service Area 30 in Massachusetts (http://www.aaemass.org), a reader writes to the Wicked Local Plymouth newspaper complaining that "AA anonymity should be respected" due to an article written Sep 22, 2012 about Henry Mahon, 19 who was arrested for setting fire to St Bonaventure Parish (Plymouth), 799 State Rd., Manomet, MA in which Alcoholics Anonymous was mentioned three times and the words "GOD DID IT" were prominently displayed in the title.

In a very familiar scenario of violence resulting from the meeting between two people at a 12 Step "fellowship" based on the scripture of Bill Wilson that claim they are safe to go to, David Mathews. 61, ended up being killed during a robbery by Walter Davis, 53, at the Alexandria Apartments on William Howard Taft Road in Cincinnati, Ohio by someone he had met at the 12 Step spin-off of the Alcoholics Anonymous faith called Narcotics Anonymous (NA).

It has come to my attention that Alcoholics Anonymous members have been breaking the "MG-18 A.A. Guidelines - Internet - Alcoholics Anonymous" published by Alcoholics Anonymous World Services, Inc. (AAWS) at the Interchurch Center on 475 Riverside Drive in New York. Per directives from the AA Interchurch main office, AA members are not supposed to be going to places such as the Orange Papers Forum (OPF) and engaging in arguments over "Spirituality", "AA members", "Groups" and many other things.

People are finding out that attendance and participation in the cult of Alcoholics Anonymous is detrimental to your future career path, especially if you are Master Sgt. Russell Granger of the US Air Force.

One of the most common means of deception of the apologetic internet missionaries of the cult of Alcoholics Anonymous is to claim that someone is not a member of one of the 12 Step cults that Bill Wilson spawned when he founded Alcoholics Anonymous to fund his adulterous lifestyle. Common excuses are, "you aren't a member", "they weren't a member" and "you have no proof they are a member."

David Trauger, 67 was the owner of a Great Harbour trawler berthed at St. Marys Boat yard in Camden County, Georgia and on Aug 13, 2012 something went terribly wrong with this Alcoholics Anonymous member in General Service Area 16 (http://www.aageorgia.org/). As is all too often reported in the rooms of AA, Mr. Trauger was going through a divorce and had sought help by the untrained and unprofessional Evangelists of Alcoholics Anonymous who are not qualified and obviously not very good at helping David Trauger.

12 steps not a medical cure: letter to the editor

It was nice to see The Plain Dealer and ideastream present a weeklong series on addiction. As the series demonstrated, addiction is too destructive and far-reaching a disease not to attack seriously.

It would appear that Alcoholics Anonymous knows that it is recruiting psychopaths as prospects for the fellowship, especially in "Hospital and Institution" (H&I) committees since it is in the basic text of AA. They appear to be going after psychopaths in mental institutions and bringing them back to their home groups for indoctrination and curing or limiting their psychopath tendencies. Could the active recruiting of psychopaths in Alcoholics Anonymous be the reason that there are so many current news incidents of violence in the rooms of AA?

A few of you may remember Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) member Eric Allen Earle who is currently being held on a million dollar bail for allegedly strangling his AA girlfriend Karla Brada on Aug. 31, 2011. Her parents are doing the right thing and suing Alcoholics Anonymous because it allowed an atmosphere where Karla was Sponsored by a male AA member Patrick Frye and acted as a kind of "marriage counselor" (for lack of a better word). It turns out that Frye and Earle may have actually met in jail.

The lawsuit....

Comedian Justin Lee Collins of the UK appears to be a fanatical control freak using Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) as a vehicle for domestic abuse. Forcing his girlfriend of 9 months, Anna Larke to do a sexual inventory where he "made girlfriend reveal all of her sexual experiences to record them in a notebook and insisted she sleep facing him" and wanting her to go to Alcoholics Anonymous rituals and ceremonies twice daily.

Twenty-four year old Robert Harris of Plymouth, UK has been involved in about 50 incidents with law enforcement in his short drinking career. He realizes he has a problem with drinking and has tried to use the Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) program, but it has failed him. The program of AA does not teach any coping skills or even have any information on how to quit drinking in its scripture except for the pledge to become abstinent "One Day at a Time." It is unknown how many days the AA program did work for him, but it is known that it did not work for almost 50 of them.

Henry Mahon, 19 had recently moved from Ohio and decided to attend an Alcoholics Anonymous Meeting on Monday September 17, 2012 at the St Bonaventure Parish (Plymouth), 799 State Rd., Manomet, MA 02345 between 9:00-9:30pm. Mr. Mahon has been arrested for starting three fires at the parish, stealing some items and leaving an ominous "GOD DID IT" message and an inverted cross note on one of the desks.

It would appear that Omar Martinez,19 is still a fugitive for the shooting in the head of a pregnant woman who came to pick up her husband when a fight ensued in the Alcoholics Anonymous prayer session. Omar Martinez was a court mandated AA member who was identified because he left his court card behind during the fight to run after and shoot at the AA member he was fighting with. If you don't remember this incident, this is the one where the AA apologetic claim it actually didn't happen "inside" the meeting as a deflection tactic to explain that AA was not involved at all.

Shane J. Peck of Grand island, Nebraska committed suicide on Wednesday September 19, 2012 by sitting on the tracks of a Union Pacific train after an AA meeting told him to leave.

The cult of Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) claims to be Spiritual, and not Religious, YET it chants the 12 Steps before ending in a religious prayer (NOTE: some to the Religious congregations of Alcoholics Anonymous that claim they are not Religious also chant the Serenity Prayer at the beginning of the prayer ritual and sermon).
