Those posters who are familiar with the OP will know the concept dreamt up by Orange. It is an imaginary (as yet) organisation whose aim is to save the newcomer from the grasps of the cult (sounds so ominous...lol). In reality, I'm sure that most of the anti folk on here went to AA because they were misinformed . The problem then was that, after entering through those doors, the REAL job of misinformation began.
I've noticed, over the last few days, new names logging in. Several haven't posted yet, and I thought it could be a good idea to have a thread every few weeks/months about what is happening here as a forum, what plans do people have to get the truth out there, and even how they feel about not going to meetings etc. Just an idea.

thanks for the laugh
ben, who vociferously abhors AA, solicits opinion from a "steptard" by showing print-outs from OPF posts "to someone in AA" (mid-meeting??), no doubt all the while ranting and "lol"-ing like a lobotomized loon with his smug pose and condescending demeanor. Then this "someone in AA" mentions the preponderance of "mentally ill people", and ben can't quite construe to whom the recognition alludes.

Coherence comes in but logic goes out.
I don't vociferously abhor AA - I just think it is dangerous and should be highlighted as such. The fact that it is based on insanity just makes it more fun.
When was your last logic class? All steptards are in AA but not all members of AA are steptards. You are forgetting : universal affirmatives can only be partially converted.
The guy I showed it to is helping me in starting a SMART meeting here. I think he has known the truth for a long time but didn't know what to do about it. He swapped one bad habit (drinking) for another bad habit (AA).
I love the way Marietta always says I show people for support. Total rubbish. Cruel as it may be, the rantings of the mad are funny.

All right, ben. Continue silently highlighting dangers you're indifferent toward. I'll let you slide for the lucidity-damaged phrasing which led to a reading where you appear ridiculous just that once.
Of course we're all familiar with the cruel rantings you "show people" on this forum. Do you tack on "lol"s when you display your "talent" IRL? Does the maniacal glee, when shown, lighten the gravity of your cruelty or exacerbate the insanity of your rantings?

The AA side of the street
Hey judge No Balls becket.
I just got home from work.
Do you have a job?
No Balls becket said "Just keepin my side of the street as clean as I can..."
Judge, you must be referring to the AA/12 Step side (your side) of the street. Your side of the street must be difficult to keep clean, what with all the blood spilled as a result of AA/12 Steps killing people around the world.
Judge, they say the #1 cause of suicide is depression.
They say depression is often times found in "alcoholics"
AA/12 Steps ideology often times increases depression in AA/12 Step "alcoholics"
Increased depression in AA/12 Step followers increases the suicide rate among the "alcoholics" of AA.
Judge, you will undoubtedly deny this truth because "denial" is a common "character defect" in AA/12 Steptards.
AA/12 Steps kill people.

There is simply no evidence that AA "kills" people. When you provide credible studies that illustrate beyond any doubt whatsoever that the program of AA is actually a noose-bearing, gun-toting, knife-wielding insane person who manually murders people I may consider what you bring to the table. Otherwise, beat it.

been there done that
I have already proven the truth of my conclusion that AA/12 steps kills people No Balls.
By using logic and reason I previously (months ago) showed that the conclusion that AA/12 steps increases the suicide rate in AA "alcoholics" to be true. You obviously are free to disagree.
The arguments I made and the conclusion reached are there to be viewed and the reader can reach their own conclusion.
Please note, however, that I used logic and reason, 2 character qualities that are sorely lacking in steptards. After all, When Faith Enters, Reason Exits, eh becket?
